Teach Us This Year...

Psalm 39:3-5 New Living Translation (NLT)

3 The more I thought about it,

    the hotter I got,

    igniting a fire of words:

4 “Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be.

    Remind me that my days are numbered—

    how fleeting my life is.

5 You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand.

    My entire lifetime is just a moment to you;

    at best, each of us is but a breath.” Interlude

Psalm 90:12 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

12 So teach us to number our days,

That we may [a]present to You a heart of wisdom.

...to number our days.
