Psalms 102:23 (KJV)

Commentary on Psalms 102:23

God's afflicting of the psalmist 'in the way' suggests suffering during active service, not passive waiting. Weakening strength 'in the midst of my days' means premature aging or death threatens. This honest lament acknowledges that God's servants aren't immune from suffering; indeed, their service may increase it. Christ's earthly ministry was similarly cut short by violent death 'in the midst of his days,' yet this abbreviated ministry accomplished eternal redemption. The Reformed understanding of suffering as God's sanctifying tool helps believers persevere through affliction.
