Moses, Israel’s prophet, would agree: “Our days . . . rapidly go, and we fly away” (Psalm 90:10). The brevity of life can fear us and trigger us to marvel if we matter.
We do. We matter as a result of we’re deeply, eternally cherished by the God who made us. On this poem, Moses prays, “Fulfill us . . . together with your unfailing love” (v. 14). We matter as a result of we matter to God.
We additionally matter as a result of we will present God’s like to others. Although our lives are brief, they’re not meaningless if we depart a legacy of God’s love. We’re not right here on earth to become profitable and retire in fashion, however to “present God” to others by exhibiting them His love.
And at last, although life right here on earth is transient, we’re creatures of eternity. As a result of Jesus rose from the lifeless, we’ll dwell eternally. That’s what Moses meant when he assured us that God will “fulfill us within the morning with [His] unfailing love.” On that “morning” we’ll rise to dwell and love and be cherished eternally. And if that doesn’t create which means, I don’t know what does.
