Death- a part of the Life cycle

Psalm 89: 

⁴⁷ O [earnestly] remember how short my time is and what a mere fleeting life mine is. For what emptiness, falsity, futility, and frailty You have created all men!

   ⁴⁸ What man can live and shall not see death, or can deliver himself from the [powerful] hand of Sheol (the place of the dead)? Selah [pause, and calmly consider that]!
Around me, over the past couple of months, I've been hearing a lot about death. So many people have been dying. It makes you realize that life is but a vapor. Tomorrow just isn't a guarantee. Death, if Christ does not return, is inevitable. So how are we living today? What grudges are we holding? Make sure you have your life right, because your next breath is not promised.

Selah [pause and think]
