The last three Psalms of book one of the Psalms are today's reading. In Psalm 39, David discusses his anger with evil and the problem and frustration he has remaining silent. He balances this with a plea for mercy and forgiveness from the Lord because he realizes how short his life is here on Earth. To be consumed with anger accomplishes nothing, thus he prays to God for deliverance.
Psalm 40 is a song of thanksgiving for the attention the Lord pays to David. He extols the joys of a life committed to the Lord. Psalm 41 is a cry for healing and salvation for "the poor." David expresses confidence in the Lord that He will remember the poor, those who have nothing and must depend solely on God.
May God bless you and bless the reading of His Word.
