Siblings have a unique relationship. It's more than the relationship of best friends—although I know siblings who are truly best friends. I've seen this with my mom and her sister and my own daughters. This can also be true of brothers and some brother-sister relationships.
The relationship of siblings is unique because they share similar DNA. This can be a good and bad thing and leads to what I call the love-hate element of sibling relationships. They can be each other's protectors or advocates then arch-enemies within minutes of each role.
I've seen this over and over again in my own family and with other siblings.
God, you are my God. I search for you. I thirst for you like someone in a dry, empty land where there is no water.
I have seen you in the Temple and have seen your strength and glory.
Because your love is better than life, I will praise you. I will praise you as long as I live. I will lift up my hands in prayer to your name.
Trouble comes in many forms. It's felt both internally and externally. Some troubles are easier to resolve than others. Pop psychology tells us not to worry about what we can't control, but we do.
We worry about the economy, the environment and global warming, and we fret over national and international violence. But really, what can we do about such things?
This psalm gives those who trust in God three assurances in the face of such worries beyond our control.
