He was a shepherd, a brave warrior, and the most beloved king of Israel. Most of all, he was a man after God’s own heart. David was an artistic man and penned most of the Psalms used by Israel in worship to God. This study examines a select number of those psalms and allows us to listen in as David struggles with his enemies and wrestles with the disappointments and questions of life while straining upwards toward God. His poems are brutally honest as he expresses his frustrations. Yet, they are instructive for they provide a window to the soul of a man who walks with God. They teach us how to truly find peace and joy in praise to God.
