The Psalms are a collection of prayers from people who felt strong emotions and let God turn their darkness into light.
The Bible is full of people who have learned from God how to be friends that understand, connect with, admire, challenge, and love each other.
We can use these psalms as a guide for ourselves when we need to find the courage to come into the light and grow.
In our most difficult moments, in our most hopeless times, and in our darkest days, prayer is the way out.
If you, like me, have a difficult time not going it alone, then you’ve come to the right place.
The Bible gives us a lot of examples of people who found the courage to be themselves by believing that God loved them for who they were.

Let’s look at how Moses, David, and Hannah's experience spending time with God changed their hearts and lives.
