Man Heads for Destruction

Psalms Bible Background

08.11.2014 Old Testament: Psa 90.5–6

To read the Bible in a year, read Psalms 90–92 on August 11, In the year of our Lord 2014

By Don Ruhl

The Lord has always been (Psalm 90.2), but man heads to destruction (Psalm 90.3), because,

You carry them away like a flood;
They are like a sleep.
In the morning they are like grass which grows up:
In the morning it flourishes and grows up; 
In the evening it is cut down and withers. 
(Psalm 90.5–6). 

Man might even live as long as seventy or eighty years, and sometimes even beyond, but it still falls far short of the eternity of God.

Therefore, we want Him to teach us how to live, how to make the most of our days.
