The Lord Will

Psalm 102:27

β€œBut thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 102

Meaning

Divine constancy answers the psalm's repeated experience of human instability and mortality.

Human frailty and the Creator's permanence

The prayer returns to shortened human life, then rests in the Creator who remains unchanged across generations.

Read carefully

The psalm contrasts God's permanence with precisely the instability the sufferer experiences.

Reflection

Anchor hope in God's enduring character rather than in unchanging circumstances.
