Number our days

“So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.”

Read in context Explain

Today's insight

Each morning brings a quiet reminder that our time here is finite. Asking God to "teach us to number our days" is not about counting down with fear, but learning to value every single day He grants us. When you realize how precious your time is, you are freed to "apply" your heart to what truly matters and walk in wisdom.

Reflect

How can you intentionally direct your time and attention today toward what matters most to God?

Prayer

Lord, teach me to number my days so I do not take this gift of life for granted. Guide my steps today, and help me apply my heart unto wisdom in everything I say and do. Amen.
