Sunday Service: Psalms of Ascent (Psalm 134) - Pastor Brian Wills

Many believers fall into the trap of thinking God's love depends on their spiritual performance, creating cycles of striving and hiding when they fail. Psalm 134 reveals a different truth: God's presence isn't earned through performance but entered through relationship. The pilgrims and temple servants in this psalm understood that neither could sustain their calling without God's blessing and presence. Through Christ's work, not our own, we've been brought near to God. When we draw near to Him without agenda, simply to be in relationship, transformation happens naturally - weary souls find rest, anxious hearts find peace, and striving people stop performing.
