Quote by John C. Maxwell
“6You have laid me in the lowest pit, In darkness, in the depths. 7Your wrath lies heavy upon me, And You have afflicted me with all †Your waves. Selah 8†You have eput away my acquaintances far from me; You have made me an abomination to them; †I am shut up, and I cannot get out; 9My eye wastes away because of affliction. †LORD, I have called daily upon You; I have stretched out my hands to You. 10Will You work wonders for the dead? Shall fthe dead arise and praise You? Selah 11Shall Your lovingkindness be declared in the grave? Or Your faithfulness in the place of destruction? 12Shall Your wonders be known in the dark? And Your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?”
