“Lord, you have been our refuge in every generation. Before the mountains were born, before you gave birth to the earth and the world, from eternity to eternity, you are God.” Psalm 90:1-2

Lord God, The most permanent things here only prove to be temporary. Permanent markers wash away after a week. Tattoos fade over time. Even the most stable governments crumble over time. Nothing lasts. No one is truly permanent. Except you. Before everything was, you were. After this world ends, you will still be. You are the one lasting, permanent and eternal constant. Teach me-though I am but dust and a mist that is here then vanishes-to hide myself in you and find my security in you. You are my lasting, eternal and permanent refuge for all my days and beyond. Amen.
