What does it mean to ask for help when we’re used to doing everything ourselves? Psalm 121 opens with a question that feels surprisingly relevant today—especially in those moments when we’re feeling stuck or unsure. This reflection explores how help sometimes shows up in unexpected ways, often when we finally pause to look up.

This set of psalms explores two deeply human needs: the desire for safety and the longing for something more than survival. The texts move between calls for rescue and a kind of spiritual thirst that isn’t easily named. It’s a reflection on what we reach for when life feels uncertain.

These five Psalms explore the ongoing tension between righteousness and wickedness—not through abstract ideals, but through lived emotion and real-world complexity.

What emerges isn't resolution, but a persistent effort to stay grounded in integrity despite the chaos.
