Sunday Psalms;

Lord, 

through all the generations you have been our home!

Before the mountains were born, 

before you gave birth to the earth and the world, from beginning to end, you are God.

Psalms 90:1-2 NLT

This is the first song in Book Four which is Psalms 90-106, and this song is written by Moses.

And Moses immediately draws us up into the Big Story, draws us back through the generations,

to before the things we see as permanent, 

back to creation, 

back to Before.

And in that Before, our God Is. 

And in the Before, there's this implication that Creation, and us, were somehow held in God's mind too (see Eph 1:4!).

In this song Moses writes about how short life is and how difficult, but it's held in this safe idea that our God is so much Bigger, so much More.

And Moses had been up close and personal with the Eternal, so close it changed his appearance  (Exodus 34:30). He'd had 40 days with the Bigger, the More, with the Eternal.

The Eternal who through all generations has been "home", and for us, and those who come after us, He is, and will be, Home too.

Our dwelling place. 

Home.
