One thing is certain – 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗳𝗹𝘆 𝗯𝘆! I am thankful that His mercies are new every single day.
In Psalm 90:12 we read the verse; “𝑻𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉 𝒖𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒏𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒅𝒂𝒚𝒔 𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒇𝒖𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒔𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒘𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒚 𝒅𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒑 𝒘𝒊𝒔𝒅𝒐𝒎 𝒊𝒏 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒔.” A seemingly impossible request, how many of us know the number of our days? Only our Abba Father who has appointed every one of them for us.
Hidden in this verse is a sparkling treasure, a truth that will change us if we let it! In the Hebrew, this verse says; “Teach us to ‘𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗵’ our days,” to not just number our days but to prepare and appoint them. Our instructions are to look upon every day as important, to plan for that day ahead of time. To prepare for the things we need to do, even to appoint moments in your day.
Make an appointment with a friend for coffee and name the day. Elect a time when you will meet with your Savior and keep the date. Set aside time for your children, your spouse, your parents. Appoint a day to write a blog or journal, study a book or meditate on The Word. Plan and prepare your days instead of watching them fly by in what seems like a flash and a blur. If we ‘𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗵’ our days then, “𝒘𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒚 𝒅𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒑 𝒘𝒊𝒔𝒅𝒐𝒎 𝒊𝒏 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒔.” That wisdom that we all want, desire and need. We will be like the five wise virgins who had oil in their lamps, they knew there was an appointed time for the bridegroom to come. In this same way, we are asked to appoint, prepare and number all the days of our lives.
Numbering my days with you! ![]()
