Sermon Notes:

The reason we end all of these Songs of Ascent with the idea of hope is that hope is what those taking this journey were ultimately looking for. They traveled to Jerusalem for the feasts, the holidays, to remember who God is and what He had done…but they also remember what God promised He would do. When we look back at all that was written and said in the Hebrew Scriptures, we see God promising to come and rescue His people through no merit of their own. That should bring us hope because we have all failed miserably, all too often. Peterson writes, “God gets down on his knees among us, gets on our level and shares himself with us. He does not reside afar off and send us diplomatic messages; he kneels among us. That posture is characteristic of God.” Because God came to save us, we get to go out and get down on the level of those around us in a way that makes God’s love tangible.
