Snapshots Of Time
Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. —Psalm 90:12

The designers of an innovative Web site call their creation a “snapshot” of our world. Every hour, computers monitor international news sources, select the most frequently occurring words and pictures, then display them as an interactive image. Over time, these hourly snapshots compose a mosaic of unfolding world events.

If a computer could track our words and actions, what would a snapshot of yesterday reveal? Over the weeks and months, what patterns would emerge? And what theme would dominate the final mosaic of our lives?

Psalm 90, a prayer of Moses the man of God, is a powerfully honest look at the brevity and significance of life. The writer compares an entire lifetime to a dream or a blade of grass, and cries out to God: “So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom” (v.12). Our days often seem so insignificant, yet they add up to so much. The Message renders verse 12: “Teach us to live wisely and well.” It is a prayer for the snapshots of life with the final image in view.

When all the pictures of our life are laid on the table, they will reveal our recurring words and actions. What story will they tell? It’s worth considering as we make our choices each day.

God has given life abundant—
Live it fully every day;
Though our time on earth is fleeting,
He goes with us all the way. —Hess

It’s not how long you live that counts, but how you live.


Bible in One Year: Job 1–3; Proverbs 11:1-11

Good Morning Everyone! :)
Mmm, Cheesecake day. I like it!! Maybe I ought to get one for dessert tonight to celebrate ;) LOL

Hi Amy, How's Missy doing with the golf? I hope she is having fun! Booboo is having a great time. I'm so glad it turned out to be a good time for her and not a bust. :)

I wish I could be around more. It's been busy. I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the summer! Actually, I better go drive Booboo to golf now. :)
See ya later!

It is something to think about. We have to take an inventory of our lives daily. Sometimes I am not happy with myself after reviewing portions of it.

I’m off and running, enjoy your day!
