Psalm 102 _ Psalms of Steel by Robert Dean Steel

What is the purpose of man?
Is it the accumulation of wealth and the procreation of children?
Does it only mean security, significance and self worth?
Are these things the production of life or its by product?
Vanity, fame, popularity are empty promises
Seeking after pleasure, possessions and pride are empty vessels.
They lead to barrenness, sterility and famine.

To tell the wicked this is as useless as chasing the wind.
Their ears are closed and their eyes are shut.
They see but do not see, hear but do not hear.
They only believe what their five senses tell them to their peril.
They will miss the simplest of truths.
They will perish in their folly.
The will go to a lost eternity because of vanity.

My child incline your ear to the word of God.
Listen to its precepts, statutes and commandments.
In the Word is truth, liberty and life.
It is food for the soul and cleansing for the mind.
In its pages are the words of life.
You will never thirst or go hungry again.
You will live eternally and abundantly in them.
