Psalm 90:1-17
A prayer of Moses, the man of God.
1 Lord, through all the generations you have been our home!
2 Before the mountains were created, before you made the earth and the world, you are God, without beginning or end.
3 You turn people back to dust, saying, "Return to dust!"
4 For you, a thousand years are as yesterday! They are like a few hours!
5 You sweep people away like dreams that disappear or like grass that springs up in the morning.
6 In the morning it blooms and flourishes, but by evening it is dry and withered.
7 We wither beneath your anger; we are overwhelmed by your fury.
8 You spread out our sins before you— our secret sins—and you see them all.
9 We live our lives beneath your wrath. We end our lives with a groan.
10 Seventy years are given to us! Some may even reach eighty. But even the best of these years are filled with pain and trouble; soon they disappear, and we are gone.
11 Who can comprehend the power of your anger? Your wrath is as awesome as the fear you deserve.
12 Teach us to make the most of our time, so that we may grow in wisdom.
13 O LORD, come back to us! How long will you delay? Take pity on your servants!
14 Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, so we may sing for joy to the end of our lives.
15 Give us gladness in proportion to our former misery! Replace the evil years with good.
16 Let us see your miracles again; let our children see your glory at work.
17 And may the Lord our God show us his approval and make our efforts successful. Yes, make our efforts successful!

Wanna know what pain is? Naw, that’s ok, we already have enough thank you….
Hold on though, I’d like to take us back to the root, to the heart of God, Our Father.
God who IS love, created freewill beings for love, All of creation was for love, every part.
The absolute best part of love is/was that it’d be responsive, reciprocal in nature. For one to have a freewill and choose love, when all other choices could be made, is awesome. It’s the epitome of love’s orchestration, love given and love received and love given and love received, and love given….
When a freewill being does not give love in return for love received there is something missing out of the cycle, the love cycle is broken up, if it is not re-engaged quickly, there are gaps. Gaps are darkness. When the cycle is broken, there is darkness.
Yet He is light. Darkness and light cannot live together. There is separation of the offending “force”. There is judgment involved, the separation is judgment. This darkness must be destroyed, annihilated, completely condemned, and eradicated from the universe. It is a plight for the two to become one again, light to eat up darkness and darkness to be destroyed in its power over freewill love beings.
Pain? Yes inside of the heart of God there is something missing, someone missing, part of His will His own will for oneness is broken, violated. He loves and rather than reciprocation there is rebellion. THAT hurts. It also hurts that there’s the possibility for repair and a freewill will not accept the help, That an enemy of God has deceived the freewill beings of love to reject love when given.
So we live here and there seems to be pain all around. It sometimes seems that our pain is unbearable and to live even 80 years is enough. How sad it is when eternity with Him begins now and we can walk in the light now, but darkness has tried to overshadow us on our mission here, so we can’t see and we can’t really know Him well.
Oh that we would see why we are here, and that 80 years would not be long enough to accomplish His will, shedding light in the earth!
God’s words from the beginning of the earth still resound today. “Light Be”. Every living being was a reciprocate of those reflective words. They were spoken into the earth of which we are made. So, “Light Be” unto you and unto yours and unto all who will come after you, in this walk of faith.
We are here to restore the cycle of love with our heavenly father and to all who will receive Him and His love. If we lived here 987,699,998,873,563,782,754,289,000,009,999,997,786,124,563,258,739,839,999,877,726,525,747,653,786,398,793,973,097,839,769,863,986,983,698 days It would not be long enough to be the display of this great Light which is love. For God IS love, everyone who loves is born of God and knows God – and will make Him known in the earth.
He longs for us to be completely healed, repaired and restored in His Divine Light and Love so that we can also live out the remainder of our days healing, repairing, and restoring others to the love of their Father God.
