If you can, I would highly encourage you to gather a friend or two and complete the Psalms of Ascent study by Beth Moore. I can make this statement with great confidence because I have now done it twice - the first time at the beginning of our hotel stay and now at what I believe is the closing days of that season. A study to bookend the stay, only God could do that!
What have I learned? After reviewing my study guide notes from my first tour, I learned that I have literally traveled most of those stairs, Psalm 120 to 134, in my current pilgrimage. Approximately three years ago the psalms that spoke the most to me were - Psalms 120, 121 and 126. In the closing of this week's study, I recorded the most crucial psalms were 127, 131 and 132. Look at that! If that is not God's faithfulness, I don't know what is. Yes, for three years, I sat between Psalms 126 and 127. But look! Look! He grew me to 132. He is faithful. "Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! " (Psalm 34:8)
So close to the top. I can see it. I can see that top step - to worship in his house always, day or night, calm or storm. I want to be there - Psalm 134. Thank you, Lord. Thank You. Amen.
No, I am not finished yet. But, I have joy for the journey. Don't forget. They made this journey three times a year. There is still so much to learn.
