“So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.” Psalm 90:12 (KJV)

 Ever think of living our best each day for God? Living in such a way as if it were our last day on earth. Ever wonder when your last day on earth will be? We all have wondered when we will die and how long we will live. Our time on earth is like a vapor, and we must prepare for eternity. When we do our best and use our gifts and talents God has given us, we are redeeming the time He has given us. We must also pray that we walk in the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23).

If we received word from our doctor that we had x amount of months to live, how would we change? What goals would we set? What would we accomplish in that little time we had? How would our love walk be? What would we stop doing that wasn’t pleasing God? What things would we start doing that we had procrastinated for so long? Would there be anybody or many that we had to forgive? We must learn to number our days and apply our hearts to wisdom. We must live wisely in order to make right decisions. Perhaps we know someone who already has x amount of months, perhaps weeks to live. We never know if this year we might be the ones to receive that report or a loved one. The things of this earth will pass away, but the things we do for God will last forever. What kind of a legacy do we want to leave?

 “Lord, help me to learn how to number my days and apply my heart to wisdom.”
