A Blessing in Disuise

01-03-05

Then the Lord said, "My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days will be 120 years."
Genesis 6:3

To decrease the potential for corruption of man, God reduced the amount of years we would be on earth.

I need to remind myself of how much it is a wonderful blessing to know that I will not have to endure the wicked things of the world for hundreds of years. God has been merciful and great, we will be with Him sooner.

Thank You Lord for having compassion on us. I pray that I would remember the blessing of a short life as well as a long life with purposes fulfilled. In Jesus' name. Amen.
