A National Park is an area of land that is preserved and maintained by the Federal Government to keep it from being destroyed. The lands that make up the National Parks have significant natural landmarks, unique ecosystems, and are also often important historically. There are a total of 423 sites protected by the National Park Service, while there are 63 actual National Parks. The first and oldest is Yellowstone National Park which was created in 1872 by President Ulysses S. Grant. The park, which may be the most famous of the National Parks, is in the three states of Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho. It is home to many hydrothermal features, including the World’s most famous geyser, Old Faithful. The creation of Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks followed soon after Yellowstone. The largest National Park is Wrangell-St. Elias National Park which covers more than 13,000 square miles in Alaska. The smallest National Park is the Thaddeus Kosciuszko National Memorial which is less than two-tenths of a square mile in size and is in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Altogether, the National Parks protect over 84 million acres of precious lands and history in our Country. More people visit the Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. The troubles of my heart are enlarged; bring me out of my distresses. Consider my affliction and my trouble, and forgive all my sins.Psalm 25:16-18
Remember the old television commercial for an antacid tablet that asked, “How do you spell relief?”
The answer, according to the advertisement was “R-O-LA-I-D-S.” Bonus question: According to the ad, how much excess stomach acid was Rolaids supposed to consume? (Answer: 47 times its own weight.) It’s probably been more than fifty years since I saw that ad. Who says advertising isn’t effective?
I suppose we can remember that kind of stuff because it was repeated so often, or

Wednesday nights at 6:30 p.m. the church offers Children’s because our young brains were better at remembering than they are now.

If the Psalms are an accurate indicator of David’s prayer life, he prayed a lot about his troubles. Our text is a good sample. He was lonely, afflicted, troubled and distressed.
There’s no doubt that he asked the Lord to help him with those matters. But look at the difference in what David asked about those things and what he asked about his sins. “Consider my afflictions and my trouble, and forgive all my sins.”
It is fine and appropriate to bring both our sorrows and our sins to God. David modeled the right spirit of

Trusting God completely, he said, “Look at my sorrows, do what you will to relieve my suffering.” But he was more specific about the galling guilt he felt, praying “Forgive all my sin.”
Isn’t it true that we’ve prayed some of our most fervent prayers when we’ve been sick or hurt or in some kind of trouble?

But even then, was the earnest prayer about some physical ailment or present difficulty? When we’re in distress, we are serious about finding relief.
In a book of Puritan prayers called The Valley of Vision, I found these words that made
