Psalm 77

I sought the LORD in my day of trouble.

I understand the Psalmist’s anguish. Of course, I’ve felt it myself.

Long sleepless nights, wondering why God doesn’t act, doesn’t hear? Doesn’t care?

Still, I seek the Lord.

I cry aloud to Him. He will hear me.

It may seem like He has changed. Doesn’t pay attention. Is rejecting me.

And I would – do – deserve that, for my regular neglect of Him and His way.

But I know. I KNOW. He is faithful.

He does not change.

He has not moved.

As He has worked in the past. He is at work today on behalf of His people.

God your way is holy.

Lord, hear my cry and strengthen me with your Spirit that I might be your servant.

By the grace of Jesus Christ.
