Job 9:25 NIV
“My days are swifter than a runner; they fly away without a glimpse of joy.”
Psalm 39:4-5 NLT
“LORD, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered, and that my life is fleeing away. My life is no longer than the width of my hand. An entire lifetime is just a moment to you; human existence is but a breath.”
James 4:13-14
“Now listen, you who say, ʻToday or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.ʼ Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.”
Psalm 90:12 NIV
“Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”
HOW TO LIVE LIKE OUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED?

1 Peter 4:10-11 NIV

If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.”
