Pick a feeling above, and we'll find a psalm that fits.
The psalms were Jesus' prayer book. He grew up with them, sang them with his disciples and prayed them on the cross: "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (Psalm 22) and "Into your hands I commit my spirit" (Psalm 31). Whoever prays a psalm, prays along with him.
