As God made creatures to rise from the dust and return to it again, he made humans with the unique ability to raise their eyes and see god’s glory during their brief time on earth. This is so that they will praise his name and come into relationship with him, and then there will be more to their lives than the cycle of dust returning to dust.
Our short and dingy lives are in stark contrast to God’s everlasting brightness. He has chosen Israel, and his hatred of evil is terrible. But his mercy and forgiveness and sweet indeed.
