Sometimes I feel I pass my days
in a stupor. I get up, dress, go to work, come home, go to bed, live life between,
do whatever, go to bed. Life goes
on. The Psalms of Ascent have given me a
yearning for something more. I share
something with these pilgrims in terms of loss … maybe not in degree, but all
loss brings a sense of confusion and abandonment. In Psalm 126 the pilgrims have shed this utter
sense of loss, because Jehovah God has delivered them. Their weeping has turned to joy. During this time of, God wants me, above all,
to immerse myself in His Word; for that is where my hope is found.
Jesus
came forth with as the captives’ deliverer’
To my grief-stricken heart,
he offered peace
Now He
holds me fast; I stand firm as the mountains;
I know in His presence, my heart
finds release.
