A psalm to remind us that our lives are part of a MUCH larger “LIFE” that is happening all around us – a LIFE that began when God said, “Let there be light.” A LIFE that is moving according to the Time Giver’s design. In that larger design, the lives that we fret about, the lives that cause us such stress, the lives that keep us up at night and addicted to ______ , and make us snap at people we love and make us so angry at _______ ... are not as critically important as we think they are. That doesn’t mean they are insignificant in any way – scripture assures us that the Time Giver has included our lives in his design ON PURPOSE, with clear intent and strategic planning. It simply means our lives are not meant to cause us the stress we allow them to. Our lives – every one of them – exist by the Time Giver’s will and for his purpose. Rather than stress about what they are or aren’t, our TIME is better spent getting and staying connected to the Time Giver and living our lives for his purpose. There is peace in that perspective.
