Examining that we all serve something (even when we celebrate freedom from other burdens such as sin and addictions), we focus here on how we serve God when trials and tribulations crash around all our lives. Psalm 77 provides a solid answer for us. The first half of the chapter seems to be full of despair as Asaph cries to God and feels abandoned as God's trials cause insomnia from an unceasing fear that those challenges will not end. But in the second half he remembers to appeal to God and remember those actions that God has previously taken on his behalf. In humility he remembers that God acts on His own timeline and that He always remembers where we are and what we need. Asaph or the songwriter rediscovers or restrengthens His faith, which has a passive and active component—passive, where he always believes God's promises and diligently waits for His promises, and active, where one should proactively seek a relationship with God. Our service to God will encompass a wide variety of seemingly positive and negative seasons in our life, and we must remember to serve Him faithfully with our full strength and might at all times.
