旅人的詩篇

詩篇 第121章

據說，這篇激發人心的詩篇，是猶太的朝聖者前往耶路撒冷過節時，在路上最常唱詠的一篇詩。這類的詩篇有不少，其中包括有詩篇一二零和一三四篇。它們都寫於不同的歷史時期，但後來都被匯集為頌讚和歌頌之詩，在百姓聚集的時候一同歌唱。

這篇詩提醒我們，歸根究柢，只有神才是我們的真正保障。耶路撒冷縱然被群山環繞，卻不能保證它的安穩。真正的保護是來自神自己，因為惟獨祂才有能力看守著它。而且，這位神亦正是我們眾人的神，祂的眼目經常看顧著祂的兒女。祂彷彿緊握著我們的手，拖帶著我們走過人生的路途。

正如小孩子有時不喜歡父母拖著他的手，也不喜歡父母看管著他或給予嚴厲的管教；成年人也是一樣，有時不願意凡事徵求神的同意。

當我們出現這種不情願的情緒時，也許，我們應該先停下來反省一下，我們所相信的，究竟是一位怎樣的神。經過反覆細想之後，我們將不得不承認，只有神的看顧是最無微不至的。

當我們還未能夠看清前路的時候，神早已一目了然。祂知道我們何時會遇上無力承擔的困難。祂絕不容許我們遇見那些能力不勝的試探。無論我們身在哪裡，是在家中還是路上，祂都必然看顧著我們；我們可以信靠祂的保護，因為祂是恆久不變的神。

這是千真萬確的保證，我們為何不更多地信靠祂呢？為何還有懷疑和不信呢？為何不立即就向祂說：「父啊，我願信靠你，求你加添我的信心，讓我懂得時刻信靠你。」

THE TRAVELLER’S PSALM
BIBLE READING: Psalm 121

This lovely Psalm is said to have been one of the songs used by pilgrims on their way up to the city of Jerusalem for Jewish festivals. There are a number of these songs (Psalm 120 to Psalm 134). They were written at different periods of Jewish history, but put together as hymns of praise and job, and then sung by the marching companies.

Psalm 121 reminds us that God, and no-one else, is our final refuge. The hills around Jerusalem do not guarantee its safety. It is God himself who does. But he not only watches over the city. He is a personal God whose eyes are always watching over his children. It is as though he holds their hands as they walk along life’s pathway.

Sometimes a child doesn’t like his father holding his hand. Sometimes children don’t like parents being too watchful or strict. Often adults don’t like the idea of asking God if they can do certain things or not.

Stop to think of who our God really is. Then you can only admit that if anyone could ever take care of you, he can.

He can see what is ahead if us. He can see when situations would prove too much for us. He will not allow any temptation to touch us that would be too great for us. He watches over us when we go out and when we are at home. He will always do this for us, because he is the Eternal God and never changes.

That certainly is reassuring. Why don’t we trust him more? Why do we doubt him? Why not say to him today, ‘Father I trust you; just help me trust you always’
