Psalm 90:12
“So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.”
This has been the theme for us over the that last year that keeps resounding in our prayers. We try to be intentional in seeking the Lord and laying our lives down by asking Him to teach us to number our days. Praying each day that we would not be so consumed with our own comforts, or caring more about our comforts rather than seeking God’s glory no matter what the circumstance. Whether it be work or health that persists with trials of many kinds. In the midst of these trials we have no hope or confidence in ourselves but rather all our hope and confidence shifts to the One who is able to do all things for His glory and our joy.
Oh, that we would cling to Him, knowing that He is Sovereign over every detail at the office and over every physical pain!
He is teaching me to surrender to His will and ask how can I bring glory to You through this today. Our longing is to bring Him glory all of our days, not just a few. That alone is a testimony to His grace working in and through all things, nothing of my own ability. I am amazed and in awe how day after day His mercies are new. He never stops giving them. It’s astounding! They never run out. Maybe that’s why I love mornings so much!
So may our hearts be drawn back to Pslam 90 over and over again because we are a people who are prone to wander and may we be satisfied with His steadfast love and not drawn to the fleeting pleasures of the world.
Psalm 90:14
“Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.”
