Time & Eternity | Psalm 90:1-6
from Christian Life Hosted by Sunil BP
First there were sundials. Then came water clocks, hourglasses and mechanical clocks. Now we have digital clocks and watches that split time into hundredths of second. Our culture certainly is concerned with time. Moses acknowledges the eternality of God and the frailty of man (vv.1-6). That’s why it’s good to read what Moses says in vs.1,2,4. It’s good to contemplate God’s eternity in the light of man’s frailty. We are creatures of time, but God is eternal. He is our dwelling place from generation to generation. The eternity we face is in His heads. The psalmist also tells us that God is faithful (v.2). He has been faithful, and He will continue to be faithful. He is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. He is the God of individuals, the God of different personalities. He is the One we can trust. Let Him be God in your life today. When you abide in Him and live for His glory, you are partaking of the eternal. The Bible says, “He who does the will of God abides forever” (1.John.2:17). When you compare time with eternity, you gain a bit of God’s perspective. You can incorporate internal values into this life. You can partake of the eternal by allowing God into your life.
