In our Counselor’s Toolbox, counselors Wes and Jacklyn Tubel use Psalm 63 and the biblical theme of wilderness to illustrate how to help people cope with their suffering. With numerous counseling applications, this article guides counselors on the use of lament and recounting God’s past faithfulness to help counselees embrace the truth that when we experience trials in the wilderness, our God clings to us.
More Than a Proof Text: “When you’re in the wilderness, God clings to you.” (Psalm 63)
