Psalms 77:5-6

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 77:5-6. I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. I call to remembrance my song in the night. I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.

He looked back into the records of ancient history to see if God did ever forsake a praying man. He thought upon his own experience, and he recollected how, when it was night with him before, God made him to sing like a nightingale, in the darkness; so he asks himself, "Has God changed? Will he give me no songs now? Will he leave me to perish?" Thus have the best of men, in their sore troubles, had to put to themselves solemn questions, and they have not always been able to answer them.
