Verse of the day: Psalm 90:12

Reflection

This is the only psalm credited to Moses. Numbering our days isn't morbid; seeing that our time is limited teaches us to spend it on what matters.

Prayer

Lord, teach me to use today well, and to give my time to what matters most. Amen.

In context · Psalm 90:10–14

The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath. So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Return, O LORD, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants. O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
