one life lived right

How have you lived your life?

Sometimes we forget that we are not here forever. Oftentimes, we are not conscious that we only have limited time here on earth. Yesterday while preparing notes for our group discussions, I calculated the hours we have in life. All of us have 24 hours a day, each year we have about 8760 hours (without considering the leap year) and if we live up to 75 years old we have had lived 657,000 hours - that is if you live up to that age or older. If you're 25 years old now, you have spent 219,000 hours of your life leaving you with 438,000 more.

Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. - Psalms 90:12 (TNIV)

I believe that when we begin to number our days, we will develop wisdom. Naturally, we would make the most of our lives. As much as possible, we would want to do things right, and fulfill the purpose we are here on earth for. May God teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
