Psalms Meditation – Aug. 1

“Thou Art the Same”

Read Psalm 102

All life is unfinished. Nothing we do is complete in itself. Only by becoming part of the work of God do we find a proper beginning and a satisfying ending to our existence. When we participate in the great themes and continuities of God himself, our lives make sense.

PRAYER: Take, Lord, all my parts — whatever years and whatever acts you can salvage out of my sin — and build a new life. Lay foundations of ternity in me; construct spacious stretches of salvation around me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

By Eugene Peterson, “A Year with the Psalms” p. 115
