This week we turned to Psalm 126, a Song of Ascents:

“The Lord has done great things for us, and we are glad… Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy.”

These psalms were sung by worshippers on their way “up” to Jerusalem—pilgrim songs for people on the move with God. They remind us that following Him is both personal and communal, and it’s a journey marked by steps: leaving behind distress, walking together in trust, and drawing near to His presence.

Psalm 126 captures the beautiful tension of the spiritual life: joy for what God has done and longing for what He has not yet done. It invites us to hold both thankfulness and expectation at the same time. Personally, this means carrying gratitude while still trusting God for future promises. As a community, it means learning to hold space for one another—rejoicing with those who rejoice, and weeping with those who weep—without judgment, jealousy, or comparison.
