Psalm 123 Lift Your Eyes

Psalm 123:1

I lift up my eyes to You,

To You Whose Throne is in Heaven.

Where do you look for hope?

When everything around is coming unglued….

Where do you look for Life?

Can we join the Psalmist and look up?

Looking up recognizes that Life…..

Real, True, Purposeful, Deep and Abundant Life……

Yes, all that I long for……..

Comes from One who is above me.

And yet, it doesn’t stop there.

The beauty of our Faith is this One who is above me……

Would come to live for me…….

Would come to live with me…….

Would come to live in me……….

Would even come to live…….. through me.

Yes, this God……

Whose Throne……

Whose Seat of Power…….

is in Heaven itself…….

This God I must humbly lift my eyes to for mercy……

Lives in us to Live through us.

To Him be All the Glory!

Amen
