Psalm 90:12 ESV
Numbering our days in this verse is not about us knowing how many days we will live. Psalm 139:16 tells us that God determined the number of days in each of our lives before we ever breathed one of them. Rather, it is about realizing our days are not to be wasted.

If we consider how short life truly is then making the most of our days to seek God's plan and purpose would be to gain the heart of wisdom. And by doing so, we can set and accomplish Godly priorities in the time allotted.
It's been said, 'Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you can only spend it once.' God wastes nothing, and neither should we.
Prayer:
Father,
Please forgive us for the time and times we have wasted. We ask that You make the brevity of life sink into our souls so we are convicted and thus compelled to make Godly choices during our short time on this earth. Give us the wisdom and Your strength to do all that You have planned for us, according to Your Word. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
