Through the Psalms: A curve in the wilderness

May 3, 2026    Pastor Pete Hypes

This is the first and only Psalm, penned by Moses. The setting is in the wilderness. The journey was supposed to start from Egypt and end at the promised land. What Moses experienced was the death of a generation, approximately two million people, in the wilderness. The brevity of life is truly a vapor, in relation to eternity. Moses prayer was that “by God’s mercy and grace, one’s life can have value, significance and meaning.”
