In times of trouble we run to God to restore our strength. The book of Psalms is the most quoted book in the New Testament. Jesus (the suffering servant) quoted the book of Psalms more than any other book of the Old Testament. Calvin and the Puritans felt convicted to sing the Psalms in public worship and loved doing so. Yet the Puritans called the book of Psalms the book covered with tears because most believers who are in pain open and read this book covering its pages with their tears. The Psalms are theological as well as doxological; they teach us about God and they help in developing His character in us in times of trouble.
