Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, so that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.” vs. 14

Psalm 90:12-14

Some folks awaken in the morning with a song of thanksgiving on their lips. They’ve been refreshed in their sleep and are grateful to have yet another day in which to experience the steadfast love of God. It is really wonderful to be able to welcome another twenty-four hours, because it’s not inevitable. One day we’ll run out of time, so it would be best to count our days and to appreciate the joy of each morning. Some people seem to be better equipped for that kind of living, probably because they know how precious life is. In the context of eternity our lifespan is not even a nanosecond, but for us it’s all the time in the world, our special allotment from our ever-loving God. During the course of our lives, however short or long they may be, we have our only opportunity to drink in the beauty of this good world. What fools we are to waste even a single day! No wonder those who awaken in the joy of the Lord are able to live such beautiful lives. Of course it’s no accident that people live this way. Anchored by their faith, they are dedicated to the balanced use of their allotted hours. Each of their days is filled with deeds of love and mercy, and they delight in their life as a servant!
