Psalm 120

Summary: The psalmist gets an answer from God. At present, he has been living among foreigners, those who love lying and war.

Response: So compassion fatigue is a thing; I've experienced it myself, where there's little empathy left for those who fail me time and again. But that's not how God operates. If mercy is new for the writer, it's new even for those who have turned away. Which is good, because sometimes I'm one of those people.
