What does the Bible say about our time on earth?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that no one chooses their time of sojourning; it is ordained by God.

According to Isaiah chapter 1, we all are temporary residents in this world, and our time here is determined by God. Just as no one chooses when they are born or when they will die, scripture affirms that God has appointed the bounds of our lives. In Psalm 90, Moses highlights the brevity of life, suggesting that we should number our days to apply our hearts to wisdom. This understanding leads to humility as we recognize that every breath we take is sustained by God's mercy.
