The Psalms are often misunderstood on how exactly they are supposed to be used. For example, frequently in the Pslams, there are verses that say God answers prayer. Of course, God does answer prayer, often not in the way that we expect or in ways that we can even see, but the underlying concept of those verses is to trust in God's plan. Often times, we look at the Psalms as ideal prayers or songs and the writers as ideal Christians, but that is often not at all what they are. Most of the Psalms are not to be imitated literally, such as the imprecatory, or curse, Psalms. Anyway, that's all I got for now.
