#Psa90v12
So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom. ESV
Teach us [Make us know] how
short our lives really are [to count our days] so
that we may be wise [gain a wise heart]. EXB
Help us to remember that our days are
numbered, and help us to interpret our lives correctly. Set your wisdom deeply
in our hearts so that we may accept your correction. TPT
The Lord God said that our average lifespan is
70 to 80 years. [Psa 90:10] The Life-Sustainer promised to preserve
our lives for His glory, so we pray against untimely death. [Psa 118:17]
'My Remaining Days' Analytics:
For a man who is 45 years old, he only has 9,125
days or 1,304 weeks to live in this world.
Now that's 9125 days to do good and make a
difference. 9125 days to take care of his family. 9125 days to love his wife
and kids. Now that's only 1304 weeks to go to church, to sing in the choir, and
to volunteer for ministry. Just 1304 weeks left to serve Him in this earthly
body.
To live is Christ, to die is gain. [Phil
1:21]
We pray to make it to the last part of our
lives where we 'End in praise' in this world, and not just in the afterlife. We
pray to continue to sing to one another 'Tell the righteous that it will be
well' with them.
And yes, the Lord God is the Rewarder, [Heb
11:6] and we strive to serve our purpose in this generation. [Acts
13:36] So in Him, we live, and move and have our being. [Acts 17:28]
Just how do we move on then? Life can be good,
but Eternal life is far better - way much better. So let me live each day with
Him.
Now this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true
God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent. [John 17:3 BSB]
I pray
for the grace to make each day count towards Eternity.
