A Prayer for February 4, 2022
So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12
O Holy Triune God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I praise you this morning that you are the Creator of all things, all of my life and all of my time. My time is in your hands, O Father in heaven. According to your wisdom and care you distribute to me the days that you have for me, as plates passed at a table or an inheritance passed to beloved children. Help me, Father to recognize the time which your incarnate Son Jesus Christ has, an eternal time of humanity glorified mysteriously yet unmixedly joined to the divine nature which is categorically beyond time and thus timeless. Grant me your Spirit, O Father, even the Spirit of your Son, so that I may have the Spirit’s wisdom to know what I ought to do and not do in the brevity of life. Thank you for giving me such heavenly math until my heart is made yours.
