LIGHT FOR THE WAY
(Daily Devotional)


"....seventy...or...eighty years ...pass quickly.."(Psalm 90:10 NCV)


MAKE YOUR LIFE COUNT

Our soul aren't hungary for fame, comfort, wealth or power.  Those things create as many problems as they solve. Our soul is hungary for meaning. We want our lives. The psalmist writes, our lifetime is seventy years or, if we are strong, eighty...'(Psalm 90:10NCV). Eighty years is just under 30,000 days, thinks about that in financial terms: 25,000,000 will buy a car or build you a little house. Its not that much money and its not that much time. None of know how many years we have left, but we know how many we've been given till now. If you have to draw a line and add them uop, eternally speaking, what would you have to show for your life? Job said, 'my days fly faster than a weaver's shuttle...k(Job 7:6NTL). Bryan Wilkerson said in his book: 'Teen count the number of friends they have, the numbers of colleges they get into. College students count grade points...credit hours...how many beers they can drink. Adults measure success by the number of bedrooms in their house, cars in their garage...or the yield on their investments. Most make two mistakes...they think they have so much time they can afford to waste it, or so little. Time they can't possibly so something significant, so they don't try. Our days are like suitcases all the same size but some can pack more into them than others. 'A person who chases fantasies has no sense, (Proverbs 12:11NLT). Numbering your days means offering them to God and seeking His direction for your life.


Prayer Point

Father, I offer my life afresh, bring new meaning out my life in Jesus name.
