"How long, you people, will my honor suffer shame? How long will you love vain word, and seek after lies?." Psalm 4.2...
This whole psalm is a good one when you can't fall asleep at night for you are wondering and debriefing your day as to how you honored or didn't honor God throughout the day. Did we live the seeking after vain words for our lukewarm witness of Christ? I can picture the writer of the psalm sitting in a royal court room gazing at the courtiers parade around like peacocks. I think the writer of the Psalm saw how much we all seek after another's praise and strive after lies that bring no truth or value to our existence. How should we live? The Psalmist answers his own questions in verse 5 "Offer right sacrifices and put your trust in the Lord."
Sleep tight.
