Psalm 125

"Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,
which cannot be moved, but abides forever."
Psalm 125:1

Mt. Shasta towers over it's surrounding area. It can be see from the rim of Crater Lake well over 100 miles away. It stands out among the mountains around it for its height and majesty. I remember as a child looking out our kitchen window and being able to see the mountain on a clear day and just being in awe that I could see something so far away.
When I read this psalm I am left to wonder how strong my trust in God is. Is my faith unmovable like this mountain? Where is it that my faith is weakest and most open to being tested? When I'm honest with myself there are actually several places where I would say my faith is weak or open to the possibility of being shaken. These are some of the areas I have been focusing upon during my time of sabbatical. I'm not there yet, but I believe that God is setting a more firm foundation within me that I pray will allow my faith to stand firm forever.
You might think it a bit odd to be exploring places where your faith might be weak but how else are you going to let God fill in the cracks and make you strong?
