God, Our Unchanging Anchor
Commentators unanimously highlight the contrast between our fleeting lives and God's eternal, unchanging nature. While the psalmist feels he is withering like grass, he finds profound comfort by shifting his focus to God, who endures forever. As Albert Barnes notes, this stability is our foundation for hope; God's character, promises, and willingness to hear prayer are constant, providing an anchor in any trial.
