Many times we forget this great fact about our life, that we are dust. Psalms 103: 14 says that "For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust". When we realize this great fact about life, we will become zero. The weakness and mortality of our natures, and the frailty and misery of our condition, that we are but dust — And that if He should let loose his hand upon us, we should be irrecoverably destroyed. This is our real condition. Why we are not understanding this great fact? or why we are forgetting this fact? What we have today is only because of His grace. God is faithful to Himself in that God is always God. God does not change. God was the Almighty Creator of the Universe in ages past and will continue to be all-powerful and all-knowing in ages to come. God does not deal with some of His creation in one way and others of His creation in another way but is consistent in His character. He remembers that all of us are dust and temporary and finite and He loves us all with everlasting compassion. God does not change in that He loves all of us continually and He has always been that way. God is faithful to Himself.
When we remember that we are dust, we will become humble in character. We will throw our pride from our life. We will be more grateful to God. We will stop running to build our worldly kingdom here.
As dust, let us be humble in our potter's hand. So He can make us and mold us upon His will.
