Scripture: Psalm 90
Episode: 1343

Scripture Summary:

In Psalm 90, a prayer of Moses, God is acknowledged as the eternal refuge of His people, existing from everlasting to everlasting. In contrast, human life is brief and fragile, like grass that flourishes in the morning and withers by evening. Moses reflects on how our days are consumed by God's righteous anger because of sin, and he pleads for God to teach us to number our days so we may gain a heart of wisdom. He asks for compassion and favor, that God would satisfy us with His unfailing love, and establish the work of our hands.

Key themes include: God's eternal nature, the brevity of life, wisdom in light of mortality, and a longing for God's mercy, love, and purpose.
