    Ps. 90:2)? How is this a comfort?
  2. Paul Helm says, “Only a God who is immutable [unchanging over time] in
    a particularly strong sense can (logically) perform all that Scripture claims
    that God performs, and a God can only be immutable in this strong sense if
    He exists timelessly.” Explain this in your own words.

  6. Read Ephesians 5:15-21. What does this passage teach us about time?
    What are some practical ways we can make the most of the time? How will
    you apply these verses to your life this week?

    reading God’s Word, prayer, journaling, and meditating on His goodness.
    Commit to spending time with God for 15 minutes every day this week.
  11. Read Psalm 42. Why is the Psalmist seeking God (v. 3-11)? Are you

    eternal!
