“So teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom.” Psalms 90:12 NKJV
God wants us to count our days and to take stock as we grow older. This means you should know when you are 20, 30, 40, etc and do very frank self assessment. This is what the scripture means by applying our hearts to wisdom.
Every day of your life is important as this counts towards your next birthday Milestone. When you take note of your days and apply wisdom to your life, you are able to maximise your life.
Maximising your life means taking advantage of every opportunity that comes your way, eliminating all kinds of waste, and anything that will hinder you from reaching your goals and fulfilling your dreams.
What are some of the things that can waste your life? Laziness (Prov 6:6/-8), too much sleep (Prov 6:4), Idleness, procrastination (Prov 24:33), lack of vision and purpose (Prov 29:18), company of wrong friends (1 Cor 15:33).
Father, separate me from everything that wastes people's lives.
Shalom!
