When life feels like an unrelenting battle—when you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and desperate for God to intervene—Psalm 28 reminds us that we don’t have to rely on our own strength. David’s prayer begins with a raw plea for God to listen, a reminder that it’s okay to bring honest distress to the Lord. In seasons where the “arrows” feel constant and the mountains seem immovable, God is not distant or indifferent. He is strength for the weary, a resting place for exhausted souls, and a shield in the middle of attack. Tonight’s meditation invites you to lean into God’s presence, trust His protection, and rest in the truth that He carries you when you can’t take another step.
