Number your days

Recently, I was talking with a man who is at church whenever the doors are open. He told me he had been away from the Lord for 64 years, and now that he has found Christ, he wants as much of Him as he can possibly get. You see, he’s making up for lost time – for the years that passed without salvation, peace, and fullness.

Today’s scripture tells us we are to number, or measure our days, so we can present to God a heart of wisdom and a life of meaning. Do you number your days? Do you focus on eternal things as much or even more than the things of this world? Remember, only what you – and only what I – do for God in Christ will stand the test of time.
