I'm reading this Psalm like this
the people get on with their lives
they call to God only when they are desperate
then God steps in because he had their backs all along
(repeat)
the people don't seem to learn
the cycle of: coping on their own - failure - desperation - prayer - redemption
imagine how much better it would be if God was in the best bits of their lives too
(it reminds me of school - some kids think they know best until it all goes wrong for them, then they turn to the teachers for help - teachers do this time after time but some kids never seem able to trust)
