Summary

Why Every Moment Matters: Reflections from Psalm 39   When David was still dealing with the consequences of his sin, he recognized that in terms of eternity, life is very short. Every moment matters, and we can use those moments of our lives to bring us closer to God or farther apart. Today’s Psalm helps us gain some perspective on how we can use our lives wisely to make an eternal impact.   Today’s Key Verse:   But now, Lord, what do I look for? My hope is in you. Psalm 39:7   Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.   Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?   Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.   Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.   Learn -> https://shehears.org Connect -> rachael@shehears.org Community-> https://www.facebook.com/groups/743928930315696/ Instagram-> https://www.instagram.com/she_hears/     Need to chat one on one?

Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.             Learn more about your ad choices.

In Psalm 39, we see David still suffering because of the sin that he committed, but yet he

0:37.4

recognizes how short life is.

0:41.3

And this idea that what we are dealing with here on earth is so temporary

0:48.1

and so small compared to eternity

0:50.9

and how we're going to live our lives in light of eternity.

0:56.4

So I pray today that as we kind of look at this continuation of yesterday's psalm where David is just in a place of

1:02.7

dealing with the consequences of his sin, that it would help us to remember when we are faced

1:09.2

with making these decisions, whether we want to pursue God and his

1:12.5

path for our lives or pursue our own path for our lives, there's not a whole lot of time.

1:19.3

And perhaps even that thought process will help us realize that we don't want to be wasting

1:25.4

time living in opposition to God's plan for us.

1:28.9

So I pray that insight blesses you today as you think through what it means to live like every

moment matters.
