    There is a very encouraging scripture found at Psalms 103:14. What does it mean to you?

    What does it say? I seem to have used up my bible, rolling papers, ya know.

    ''For he himself well knows the formation of us, Remembering that we are dust.'' (small ''H'' for HE and HIMSELF..?..)

    Thanks, cuckoo. Aah yes, the old fear of god meme. He seems to have forgotten that we are also animals. Perhaps some angle angel will remind him. Now, scientists have documented dna to prove it.

    I can see how that verse would be encouraging to fearful, guiltridden believers. But, to those cured of that, it's almost pitiful.

    hmmmm....never heard anyone call that scrip "encouraging"

    It means we are going to be dust after we die. It means we should live happy, satisfying, meaningful lives now because this is the one and only life we will ever get.

    look at that text again maybe starting with the 1st verse. That text tells us a wonderful thing about God.
