Psalm 121

I lift my eyes toward the mountains.
Where will my help come from?
My help comes from the LORD.
The maker of heaven and earth.

A song of ascent – a Psalm for the journey. Indeed, I’m on the journey of life.

Today, I lift my eyes toward all that is around me. Am I surrounded by enemies or danger that will swarm over me from the mountains around me?

I find comfort, instead, in these mountains.

The Lord, creator of heaven and earth, sustainer of life, giver of joy, redeemer and guide and friend.

He is my constant companion on this journey.

Danger? Maybe – but He’s here to protect.

Struggle? Surely – but He is my strength and my hope.

Where is my help?

Right here!

The Lord is my help.
