- So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom. Psalms 90:12 – A wise heart looks at life as a whole and doesn’t just remain in the moment. It sees the reality that an ending will come and will ask what sort of change did it leave behind. Here the psalmist is asking God to help him see his life for what it really is, something fleeting yet something that has purpose for the moment it’s around. We too need to realize our life on earth isn’t forever. What change then is going to be left behind once your life is over as a result of the life you did live? Remind yourself you only have one life to live and time moves fast. What change in this world and in the lives of others do you want left behind because you were here?

- You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence. Psalm 90:8 – Today I’m getting the chance to preach on a favorite topic of mine, reconciliation. My definition will be it’s the process of bringing back together what’s been torn apart. That two parties who were once good now aren’t due to some sort of wrong. They choose to come together, address the wrong, and seek peace and forgiveness with each other. Know today God knows the deep, dark wrongs in our story that has caused such havoc on our walk with Him. In fact we don’t even have to invite Him closer to see them, the light of His presence reveals to Him even the most secret of sins in our story. Meaning God knows about all of it. Yet, knowing all of it, He still is seeking reconciliation with us. Being fully aware of all the wrongs and secret sins God still chose to sacrifice it all on the cross to be with us. Dwell today on the truth that God knows it all and still longs to be with you. That someone sees your whole story, not a letter missing out or overlooked, and still deeply wants you in their life. This is Jesus. I love you, but Jesus loves you more – Mac – Daily DEVO 2050
