The Holy Power of Anger and Despair

“Lament is a sincere form of praising God.  As a people of faith, we must re-claim the powerful voice of lament found throughout the Psalms.  When we raise our complaints to God and demand that God intervene on our behalf, we express our trust that God can and will help us.  In so doing,  we avoid the misdirected feelings of guilt and blame that so often accompany hardship.”
