Psalm 39 – Handbreadths

Behold, you have made my days a few handbreadths,
    and my lifetime is as nothing before you. Psalm 39:5

This earthly life is just a handbreadth in the face of eternity. One day, we will step into heaven where there is no pain, no sorrow, no suffering, and no more injustice.

This is the hope we cling to on those pain-filled days when life seems hard to bear, when all we see is suffering and heartache.

Press on, my friend, press on. Life is but a blip in the light of eternity. Every day, you and I are that much closer to heaven.
