True Satisfaction

About This Sermon

Kal Kilgo teaches from Psalm 90 about where true satisfaction is found. Moses wrote this prayer in a season of deep loss and disappointment, yet he began by fixing his attention on the everlasting God rather than his circumstances. Kal shows that human life is brief and frail like grass, and nothing in this world can satisfy our eternal longing. The path to satisfaction is not a change of circumstances but asking God to fill us with His steadfast love. God is able to redeem hard seasons and establish the work of our hands when we come to Him.

Scripture: Psalms 90
