Psalm 90: 12
So teach us to number our days, that we may present to Thee a heart of wisdom.
O my Father, teach me to number my days. Teach me to understand that even though You have given me excellent physical health and my days are being directed by You as I submit my hours to Your leading; that though I have already lived an abundance of years to have attained a high number, I will not live forever in this body on this Earth.
I must get and maintain all my affairs in order in the view of leaving them behind for others, as I do not know how many more days and years You have alotted me; whether several more decades or just hours.
My husband was in most excellent health and the prognosis for his life was that he had many more years, decades to live and serve You. But You took him home to Glory very suddenly and unexpectedly from our earthly standpoint.
So I do not know Your plans for me; only that I trust You to have so much better planned for me than I could be able to plan for myself.
So please grant me a heart of Your wisdom to prepare for my end, whether it come sooner or later. And let me serve You with the love of all my heart and soul and strength all the days of my life.
Let the thoughts of my mind and the attitudes of my heart and the words of my mouth be pleasing to You, my Lord God. Continue to mold me and shape me into the very image of the character of Your dear Son, my Lord Jesus, so that You may thrill my heart with Your smile.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
