Trusting in God's Care (Psalm 127)

Songs for the Journey: Sermons on the Psalms of Ascents
Reading: Psalm 127

Psalm 127 is written to remedy the painful restlessness which can result from worry by giving us a vision of God’s providential care. The remedy is not working harder or longer, it’s trusting in God’s care. The Psalm highlights three ways God’s care comes to us in very ordinary ways; work, security services & family. Yet what the Psalmist wants us to see most is that behind, above & beyond each of these is the LORD who is the primary carer of those who trust in him.
