Psalms 77:7

"I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:"

Key Reflection

In Psalms 77:7, David reflects on his past experiences with God, especially during times of distress when he turned to song for comfort and guidance. His heart and spirit deeply ponder these memories, seeking solace and wisdom even in the darkness of night.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Will the Lord cast off for ever? -This was the subject, and the substance, of his inquiry: whether it was a fair and just conclusion that God would show no mercy; would never be gracious again. Evidently the thought passed through his mind that this seemed to be the character of God; that things looked as if this were so; that it was difficult, if not impossible, to understand the divine dealings otherwise; and he asks whether this was a fair conclusion; whether he must be constrained to believe that this was so.
