My life has felt like one long transition at times. This has been particularly true for the last few years, as I deal with changes and seek God’s will in various situations.
This month I would like to take an in-depth look at one of my favorite Psalm. I often turn to this verse for both guidance and comfort.
1 I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
The Bible takes place in the modern day Middle East. During the Bible times mountains dotted the region and landscape.
Mountains often are a reference to authority or a rule. The author is most likely referring to God’s throne.
where does my help come from?
I know I often wonder where help will come from. When my prayers will be answered or how I will get through a situation.
2 My help comes from the Lord,
The speaker speaks of the greatness, power and glory of the Lord. Lifting up of the eyes is a gesture of prayer.
the Maker of heaven and earth.
God is the maker of both heaven and earth. He is the ruler over both the heavens and the earth.
