Responding to the Gift of Time
If ever there was someone who had cause to reflect on the passage of the years, it was Moses. He had seen so much, from growing up in Egypt, to spending decades in Midian, and wandering in the desert with a rebellious people. Somewhere towards the end of his life he was led to reflect on the meaning of time and how this relates to his relationship with God. Psalm 90 was the result. Although we live worlds away, in space and time, from the circumstances in which these words were written, there is still so much that we can learn from this powerful prayer of Moses.
