However, by directing our attention towards God, we can cultivate a deep reliance on Him exclusively. Our life experiences shape our patterns of thinking, influencing how we perceive the world. Often, our anxious thoughts stem from the significance we attach to our own decisions and desires. Yet, God actively strives to instill within us a sense of peace and contentment in Him. It is crucial to recognize that our thoughts and ways differ from His. Like errant sheep, we have veered off course, choosing to follow our own paths.

In our efforts to adhere to God's law, we often rely on our own performance and hold onto past mistakes, believing we can correct them through our own efforts. However, we should recognize our inherent weakness and inability to achieve true change without God's help. By understanding our true identity as weak and dependent on Him, we can find true solutions to our struggles.

It is important to recognize that God utilizes our wrongdoing and challenges as catalysts for us to seek closer communion with Him. When He "remembers," it goes beyond mere intellectual recollection; instead, God draws near to us when we willingly surrender our sins and trials to Him, entrusting them into His care. As stated in the scripture, "I patiently waited for the Lord, and He inclined His ear to me and heard my plea." However, our impatience often hinders us from witnessing the transformative power of God as He turns our sins into something good. Instead, we tend to dwell in guilt, focusing solely on the positive promises of scripture. It is crucial not only to shed the burden of guilt and sin but also to express our frustrations and anger, entrusting them to God. Ultimately, we must strive to cultivate a mindset of humility and personal growth.

We never find ourselves in a pragmatic state when it comes to our connection with God. It is either a state of blessing or destruction. While we all strive for a harmonious relationship with God, we often find that as we humble ourselves, our desire to truly experience God intensifies. We release the burdens of our earthly experiences and find true liberation. This newfound freedom opens our hearts wider, enabling us to sincerely worship and glorify God. As the Psalmist proclaims, "I will wholeheartedly praise you, O Lord, and share the marvels of your accomplishments." The expansion of our hearts allows us to perceive the numerous divine interventions in our lives, which the Psalmist poetically refers to as wonders.
