For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told. The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath. So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom (Psalms 90:9-12).
Today’s Morsel: If you could see the scale of your life, how many days would you say that you have left upon the earth? The psalmist says that we live our life as a tale that is told. James says, “Go to now, ye that say, Today or tomorrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away” (James 4:13-14). James said our lives are as vapors which are quickly gone. Since none of us know just how much time we have, what are you doing with your time? Like some cell phone minutes, ou time doesn’t roll over. Either you use it or lose it. Are you spending time with Jesus? How much of the 1440 minutes did you let drop that could have been used to strengthen your relationship with Jesus today? How much time are you spending with family and friends? Are you devoting all your time to your career and work, building no memories with your loved ones or Jesus? How will they tell the story of your life? Hebrews 11 is written so that you know that they did not waste their time. They used it wisely. They redeemed every moment of it. It is a said that your employer and those with whom you work with will only say about 30-60 second about you at your funeral, but after that, nothing will be mentioned, and that is if you are still working with them when you die. But your family will continue to remember you and talk about you as long as they live. The psalmist said, “So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.”
Sing: Jesus said, Here I stand, won't you please let me in, and you said, I will tomorrow. Jesus said, I am He, who supplies all your needs; and you said I know but tomorrow. (Chorus)
(Chorus) Tomorrow, I’ll give my life tomorrow, I thought about today, but it’s so much easier to say, tomorrow. Who promised you tomorrow, better choose the Lord today, for tomorrow very well might be today.
Jesus said, here I stand, won’t you please take my hand; and you said, I will tomorrow. Jesus said, I am He, who supplies all your needs; and you said I know, but tomorrow (Chorus)
And who said tomorrow would ever come, for you, still you laugh and play and continue on to say: Tomorrow; forget about tomorrow,, won’t you give your life today, Please don’t turn and walk away. Tomorrow, tomorrow is not promised, don’t let this moment slip away. For your tomorrow , very well may be too late.
