May 1, 2017: Day 121 – Psalm 121

Favorite psalm alert!!  Who can read this psalm without feeling a sense of peace and security only on par with psalm 23?  It is once again a song of ascents which means that this would have been sung by pilgrims as they made their way from the Mount of Olives up to the hill where the temple stood, or where Jerusalem was located.  It is a psalm which also has ties to Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness in each of the Gospels.  

It is nice to know that God is never napping on us.  I like to know that when I find myself in some tight situations.  Praise God that He is ready to take on whatever comes our way.
