For no other foundation can anyone lay than
that which is laid,
which is Jesus the Messiah.

Psalms 90:12
So teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom.
|
Father, teach me to number the days of my life.. to
know the course of my life.. to see its beginning and end. Help me
to see that I am but a vapor and a mist… here today and gone
tomorrow. Help me to see that I am here on earth only for just a
mere moment in time… show me how eternity swallows up my life and my
existence in this body so that it appears as but a speck of dust.
Give me a heart to grasp and comprehend eternity.. its finality and
its unending path. Give me eyes to see how brief and fleeting my
course.. how my time is the most valuable thing you have given me.
Release to me Father a heart of wisdom… so that on that day I may
not draw back in shame. When the Lord Yeshua appears in the clouds,
on that day, that I will not shirk back or be caught unawares… Give
me strength to run my course, to run this race, to find
perseverance, to withstand persecution, to be strengthened by the
blood of the lamb, to proclaim the testimony of Jesus, and to love
not my life unto death. Give me endurance in this race… to see my
life only in context of your awesome majesty and eternal existence.
Help me to see my life and its brevity so that I may give to you a
heart of wisdom on that day.
Father, help me to be a son of Wisdom… to pursue only things that
are important.. that are birthed in your heart… that are conformed
to your will. Help me to run this race and achieve what you have
ordained for me… open my mind to see my course and my path.. open my
mind and emotions to receive ONLY what you would give me. I want
nothing more than your divine, perfect, and good will for my life.
Help me to have wisdom in my time, my pursuits and my passions.. so
that I do not waste my life in dissipation.. as though I spent it in
drunkenness. Help me instead to live my life with passion for you
and your purposes. Consumed only by your glory and your honor and
your majesty. Give me this heart of wisdom Father.. to know the
limits of my life and my course… to live every day in the NOW of
your presence.
Let it be so! |
