A road trip is a time of transition. An experience of being in between. In between the time we leave home and arrive at our destination.Any transition time is like when a gymnast is on the uneven bars and they left one bar and are transitioning to the next. It is a time of danger, of expectation, of uncertainty, of excitement, of feeling alive. We are all on a journey of faith. Your life is headed somewhere. Is it headed the direction you are intending? God is also leading you on a journey of the heart. He is trying to draw your heart more into his. That’s what the Psalms of Ascent were designed to do — draw our hearts more into his as we journey towards God. Psalm 120 reminds us that the first step towards God is a step away from the lies of the world.
