Life as Grass

In Psalm 103, the contrast between the fragility of man and the eternality of God is palpable. Without the immortal and unchanging compassion of God, humans would be destined to life as grass....

But God, "abounding in love," has broken through humanity's (weak) rebellious defenses and touched us with forgiveness and undeserved kindness. And that one touch is enough to draw us out of the dusty temporal into the glorious Forever.

"Praise the LORD, O my soul; all my inmost being, praise His holy name."
(Ps. 103:1)
