Psalm 90:12 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
If we knew exactly how long we would live for, many of us would only sort our lives out just before we die!
God wants us to have our lives sorted all the time, to be ready all the time.
The best way to do this is to have Christ with you always!
Ephesians 2:22 And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.
How often do you clean your house? When someone is coming to visit, or do you keep it clean all the time?
We have a very important visitor who wants to come and stay within us: The Holy Spirit.
We should always be ready and always try to stay righteous so we make Him welcome at all times!
Psalm 119:38 Fulfil your promise to your servant, so that you may be feared.
How often do you call out to God to help you avoid sins and to revere Him as you should?
How often do you ask Him for strength the avoid the things you cannot avoid by yourself?
We should be in constant prayer to ask Him to guide us and strengthen us as He has promised...
Psalm 1:1 Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers
When everyone around us is doing something wrong, is it right to join in? No!
Christ wants us to be separate from the world and the sins which many people invite into their lives.
God can stay closer to us when we do not live sinful lives!
