Psalms of Lament – Christine Valters Paintner 

“A full one-third of the book of Psalms are psalms of lament. Theologian Walter Brueggemann calls them the psalms of disorientation which lift up attention to the pain of human loss. When we deny this pain, we become prone to guilt and becoming trapped in the spiral of self-blame and paralysis.”
