When Heaven Seems Silent

When Heaven Seems Silent

The title of Psalm 77 identifies it as a Psalm of Asaph. Asaph was a Levite whom David appointed to the ministry of music and worship before the Lord. He was a gifted musician, a worship leader, and a man well acquainted with the truth of God. Yet knowing the truth of God did not make Asaph a stranger to sorrow. Psalm 77 is a Psalm of lament, written from the depths of great distress. We are not told the exact circumstances that produced his anguish, but whatever the trial was, it was severe enough to shake him deeply.
