For my soul is full of troubles, and my life draws near to the grave. I am counted with those who go down to the pit; I am like a man who has no strength, adrift among the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom You remember no more, and who are cut off from Your hand.
This psalm, of course, is inspired scripture, yet all these things are written from this psalmist’s perspective, and not from God’s perspective.
It is certainly not true that those who have died are remembered no more by the Lord, and are cut off from His hand. The presence of the Lord fills heaven and earth.
