Good Morning Numbered One!

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

Let’s look at this from the Easy Version ~ Teach us how short our lives are so that we can become wise.

Every day that you get is a gift from God! There are two dates in your life that you don’t have anything to do with, you can’t reschedule them nor change it, they are what they are, it’s your date of Birth and the date of your death! But, all the other dates in between, they are yours! Your early childhood days may have been planned by your parents, be it good or bad, but when you became an adult, all these days have belonged to you and what you decided to do!

What are you doing with the dash in between? No one knows the truth of how many days you will see on this side of earth. So, if you are still here today, what are you doing? The Word of God is constantly reminding us of how short life is, (James 4:14 “What is your life?  For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.”) And yet we still take it for granted, for 100 years is nothing in comparison to life in eternity!

For when it comes to knowing this, how can you continue to waste even one more second of your day? Sometimes I think back on all the time I thought that I had wasted and then my Father, reminded me that what I thought was wasted, was not, He used all my days to form me into the person I am today. What about you? Are you grounded in your relationship with Him? Is your identity secure in Him? You may encounter some challenges and changes in your future, but you don’t need to worry about tomorrow, you need to embrace today! Your life is so important to God, and they are numbered, and nobody knows when your number will be called!

Today you are living your best life,  the dash, the days between your birth and death. Psalm 103:15 records, “As for man, his days are like grass; he flourishes like a flower of the field; for the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place knows it no more.” What will your legacy be? The real question is, what are you doing with your dash?

Let’s Pray:
Father, I Thank You! Thank You for my life! Father, I thank You for everything that You have done. Thank You taking the days that I thought was wasted and using them to bring me closer to You! Father, I am seeking You and Your Wisdom every day, please help me to be wise and see everything like You say! Father, I will be obedient to what You tell me to do, help me walk away from all detours and distractions, that I may focus on You! Father, use me for Your Glory for I want to be Your mouthpiece in the earth, that I may say what, “Thus said the Lord!” Father, I’m grateful for this day that You have given me, and I will use it according to Your Purpose. In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Blessings…
