You have probably noticed that in scripture the worshippers were always said to “go up” to Jerusalem. The reason that you “go up” is that Jerusalem is located on the top of a chain of mountains that runs through the center of the land. It was an arduous journey and fraught with danger — who knows what beast or bandit might be lying in wait? So the Psalmist looks up to the route ahead and asks, “Where will I find help for what I now face?” The answer for all “the mountains of life” is, of course, the Lord — always present to provide the needed help.
