The Bible, the eternal word of the eternal God, has much to speak to us about the eternal and the transient. Again and again, Scripture exhorts us not to focus on the transient, passing, "chaffy" things of this world but to focus on those things that shall endure beyond this life; the abiding things that shall carry weight in eternity. John Wesley (1703-1791) said this: "I value all things only by the price they shall gain in eternity". How about you?
How are you doing in this area, beloved? What is your eternal to transient quotient? Are you doing the will of God? Do a reality check. Search the Scriptures. Be Berean.

This Psalm opens up by informing the reader that Moses was the author of this song, and then describes him as 'the man of God.' The above verses are the climax to his song, and they reveal the way we come into true spiritual service. Remember that King David said, 'He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel' (Psalm 103:7). The children of Israel indeed saw the acts of God, but the LORD revealed His ways to Moses. Therefore, we can learn something of the way of effective service through the revelation we find in this portion of God's Word.

The Bible does not merely consist of stories having no logical grounds or reason to believe them. Its stories are set within a real historical and geographical framework, and there is much evidence in support of its historical veracity. Tours of the British Museum, for example, are conducted, in which participants view discovered artefacts which vindicate historical claims found within the Bible. There is also overwhelming evidence for Jesus’ historical existence and His resurrection from the dead (see e.g. Lee Strobel: "The case for Christ").
