Return to Dust You Mortals Arise and Abide

Reading Psalms 90. You see this glimpse into Moses’ heart with this psalm and his understanding of reality, it's an awareness of how precious life is how brief life is. Now that Christ has come and died on the cross, all of God's wrath was poured out onto Christ on the cross and is no longer poured out onto us. God is our refuge. God sees all the pain that we go through the trials we go through. But God also sees our hearts and the sins of our heart. We have a God who is beyond time, a God who is completely just, a God who understands and can help us to realize the brevity of life so that we can grow in wisdom.
Before I started following Christ, the secret sins would be the things that I would think that I was getting away with, but in Christ, those secret sins are the things that we want Christ to work out of our life. I thank God for the discipline that He gives the correction that He brings. But it's only effective in our lives if it produces growth if it produces change. Without growth, we simply stay where we are. Life is brief and so many of the things that people fill life with is completely meaningless. When we're young we don't consider that our days are numbered. As we get older, looking back to our youth we understand and we tell the youth, take advantage of these days because we understand that that time lasts only a certain time. Although our bodies are dying, which I can definitely relate to as we get older, our spirits are being renewed each day and God is teaching us to fix our eyes on things that can't be seen.
