Journeying with God through the Seasons of Life 11: Knocked Down but Not Out - Psalm 129
Description
While preparing this message, I thought back to individuals in my life who have experienced great hardship in the form of opposition from people, where people have come and stood in their way and made life very hard for them. And yet, the same people are joyful and thankful, and they're resilient. It's an amazing thing. Knocked down but not knocked out. That's what I want to talk about today from Psalm 129. These are Psalms of ascent, 15 different psalms, back to back, of God's people on a journey, going up to meet with God. All of us are on a journey. I call this series Journeying Through the Seasons of Life. We find ourselves at some point in our lives in every one of these psalms, experiencing it full on. Maybe this is you right now, facing people who have made the way hard for you. Let's read it together.
