David suffers intense loneliness as he faces family conflict and danger. These times of danger are from his boss and father-in-law King Saul. Instead of being eaten up by the intense loneliness he must have felt with job and family pressures all dumped on him at once--he expresses his needs to God.
His prayerful responses to these tough times are captured in the Psalms and show a pathway through loneliness to the One who is closest of all. The setting for Psalm 59 is I Sam 19:11 as Saul tries to murder him, in that time of feeling so alone David writes Psalm 59—how to overcome the feelings of loneliness when we are in danger.
