How long will you look the other way?
2 How long must I struggle with anguish in my soul,
with sorrow in my heart every day?
How long will my enemy have the upper hand?
3 Turn and answer me, O Lord my God!
Restore the sparkle to my eyes, or I will die.
4 Don’t let my enemies gloat, saying, “We have defeated him!”
Don’t let them rejoice at my downfall.
Restore the sparkle to my eyes, or I will die.
4 Don’t let my enemies gloat, saying, “We have defeated him!”
Don’t let them rejoice at my downfall.
5 But I trust in your unfailing love.
I will rejoice because you have rescued me.
6 I will sing to the Lord
because he is good to me.
I will rejoice because you have rescued me.
6 I will sing to the Lord
because he is good to me.
During some of our hardest times it seems God
is silent. He's silently watching us suffer. Most of the time the reason he is
silent is because we are not reading his word daily. It seems like bad prosper
and the good suffer. I would still choose suffering and salvation than earthly
rewards.

Burnett: 13 How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever?
How long will You hide Your face from me?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul,
Having sorrow in my heart all the day?
How long will my enemy be exalted over me? I have asked these questions before. How can evil people be given so much? Two reasons, first it glorifies God when a person who has been given much, puts his or trust in Jesus Christ. Second it glorifies God when a person uses what God has given him to do evil and we know that Jesus Christ already has victory over evil. It also increases the consequences from being on top to nothing but darkness and eternal pain.

3 Consider and answer me, O Lord my God;
Enlighten my eyes, or I will sleep the sleep of death,
4 And my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,”
And my adversaries will rejoice when I am shaken.

5 But I have trusted in Your
lovingkindness;
My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.
6 I will sing to the Lord,
Because He has dealt bountifully with me. Those of us who have received His mercy through His grace and we should not be able to help but rejoice in His Salvation He gives us. Bountiful really doesn’t describe how good He has been to me. It is much more amazing than that.
My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.
