9. Lord, all my desire is before thee. If unuttered, yet perceived. Blessed be God,
he reads the longings of our hearts; nothing can be hidden from him; what we
cannot tell to him he perfectly understands. The psalmist is conscious that he
has not exaggerated, and therefore appeals to heaven for a confirmation of his
words. The good Physician understands the symptoms of our disease and sees the
hidden evil which they reveal; hence our case is safe in his hands. And my groaning is not hid from thee. Sorrow and anguish hide themselves from the
observation of man, but God spies them out. None more lonely than the
broken-hearted sinner, yet he has the Lord for his companion.
