• 2:46Psalms 22

  …Just to hear the words, the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want, brings you to a place where maybe you were at a graveside or you were in a moment of need and God met you in that moment. To hear words like Psalm 22, my God, my God, why have you forsaken me? To hear words of Psalm 139, before, Lord, I was in my mother's womb, you knit me together.

  Or maybe you love Psalm 23, this beautiful picture of God as our shepherd, right? That he prepares a table in the presence of your enemies and your cup runs over. Maybe you think of Psalm 22, Jesus praying that psalm on the cross. My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Some of you think about Psalm 139 or 138 or maybe 119, the longest chapter in the Bible.

  Because for all of us, there are deep moments of joy and adulation. And all of us have moments in our life where we look and we say, God, where are you? God, this day could not be any more dark. And in the psalms, you will find people groaning out to God in dark moments and saying, God, I need your voice. Listen to me. And Psalm 22 is one of those psalms. It's what we call a psalm of lament.

  And I can only imagine the trauma of starvation and death and homelessness and insecurity. I can imagine, and I can't prove this, but I can imagine that there have been nights in Naomi's life where she's been up after she thought everyone else was asleep. And maybe she was uttering the words of Psalm 22. My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?

  And we read the voice, the voice spoke and said in Aramaic, Eloi, Eloi, Lamak, Sabachthani. And any Jewish passerby would have recognized the Aramaic. They would have immediately heard the first verse of Psalm 22. It's a psalm written by David, which is written in a time of distress. Most people growing up in the Jewish society would have uttered the same words. They would have read the psalm because in their darkest of days,

  They would have read the psalm because in their darkest of days, they would have said, God, God, are you there? And in that moment, can you imagine the Jewish people recounting the words of Psalm 22? David says in the psalm, Lord, why are you so far off? God, I cry to you, but you don't answer. The psalmist says, I am scorned and despised. See, everyone mocks me.

  But he cries out with a loud voice. Eloi, Eloi, lemak sabachthani. Which means, my God, my God. Why have you forsaken me? From Psalm 22. I am a worm. My God, my God. My God. My God.
