MY DESIRE IS TO HONOR HIM!

MY DESIRE IS TO HONOR HIM!

A thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night. —Psalm 90:4

Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures. — Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. —Psalm 90:10

May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us— yes, establish the work of our hands. — Psalm 90:17

            What is a thousand years in the sight of our Lord?  They “are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night.  Compared to eternity, a thousand years wouldn’t even show up on a timeline.  “Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures” and what is that compared to eternity?  Our lifetime is so miniscule when measured against eternity and yet the Lord God Almighty, He who is eternal, took notice of me… of us.  This is truly astounding and to think that Jesus took on a body and came into this world so that whoever calls on Him to be saved from sin would be with Him in eternity.  Amazing!

            Oh, truly, my desire, hopefully your desire is that “the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us— yes, establish the work of our hands.”  May it be so that I would, we would, honor Him who so loved us— “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness” (Jeremiah 31:3) and “God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).  Yes, with the years left to live, may we live to honor Him.  May it be so, Dear Father, by the power of Your Holy Spirit and in the authority of Your Son Jesus.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiS2QzvDhQc
