“Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” Psalm 90:12
It’s easy to lose track of time. We get caught up in work, chores, the needs of our families, and our routines, often forgetting how quickly the days pass. Psalm 90:12, which is attributed to Moses, encourages us to be more mindful of how we spend our time and to live with purpose.
Gaining a heart of wisdom requires focusing on things that truly matter. Things like loving others, being kind, and doing what is right in the eyes of the Lord. It means thinking about how our actions affect others and seeking God’s guidance in our decisions.
This does not come natural to us! So this is why we need to spend time with God in prayer, reading His Word, and connecting with other believers. These things help us understand what’s important to God and how to live in a way that pleases Him.
When we get into the habit of focusing on what matters to Him, our lives will become fuller and much more meaningful.
Today’s Prayer: God, help us see the value of each day and to live wisely. Guide our choices and help us focus on what truly matters. Give us hearts that seek your wisdom, so that we may live purposeful lives according to your will. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
