Day 499 - Psalms : Chapter 22
Psalm 22 : A Cry of Anguish and a Song of Praise
I just could not believe when I read this Psalm. These were the words by Jesus! "They gamble for my clothes and divide among themselves". Since we just finished Good Friday a couple of days back, this brought back into memory the whole day's service. The service in our church - the wordings in the songs and all the readings - they are very heart-rendering. You will feel as though you are taken to that moment.
The Psalm ends by saying that the Lord answers everyone's cries and helps all in trouble. Even the unborn would say - "The Lord saved his people".
