The Daily + This Sunday (Holy Communion)!

“As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore” (Psalm 125:2).
If you have ever taken a trip to the mountains, you can picture this. You can see them for miles and miles on your approach. When you begin your climb into them, either on foot or in a car, it feels like losing yourself in a different world. Upon arriving at your destination–a cabin or lodge–you step out on the deck and take in the vista. And all you can see is ridge upon peak upon ridge of mountains. You are surrounded, a tiny being protected on all sides by a fortress of God’s own making. So the Lord protects his people. We are tiny beings, surrounded by his strength and might and massiveness. Every which way we look, He is there, further than the eye can see, guarding us and protecting us. He is impregnable, unassailable. So we can rest in the safety of his presence and care. Not just today, not just tomorrow, “from this time forth and forevermore.” God is our refuge and protection forever. The only way to lose it is to leave. So long as we are with Him, we are encompassed by the mountainous protection of God.
