God Our Home
Psalm 90:1-17
Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.…


There is pathos in the fact that the author of this psalm never had an earthly home in the truest sense. For the first fifty years of his life he was the foster son of an alien; for the next, a fugitive; and for the last, a wanderer in the wilderness. But God is the best home, after all. How one feels the blessing of a pleasant home after long travel. What should a home be?

I. A PLACE OF SHELTER. And God is that, from wrath, sin, sorrow.

II. A PLACE OF SUPPLY. There we go for " our daily bread." And it is God who gives us that.

III. OF ENJOYMENT. Those do not know God who have never found delight in Him.

IV. REST.

V. LOVE.

(M. B. Riddle, D. D.)
