Writing of Psalm 127 Derek Kidner says, “One of the most telling features of this short poem is that it singles out three of our most universal preoccupations — building, security, raising a family — and makes us ask what they all amount to and to whom we owe them.” Rather than looking at the psalm according to these three common preoccupations, church elder Jamie Chesser proposes we look at it instead in two parts, in order to reveal something more about God’s providence. Listen as Jamie teaches on this passage, looking first at the warnings giving about our striving, when done apart from God, and then looking, in contrast, at God’s perfect provision.
