So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

— Psalm 90:12 (KJV)

It’s easy to imagine making time for something once the week gets quieter. A conversation, a walk, or a note to someone can keep moving to the next open space on the calendar.

This verse makes me think about how I use the day I actually have. I may not have an entire afternoon free, but I might have time to ask a question and listen to the answer. I might have ten minutes to sit with someone instead of checking one more thing.

I want to notice those openings while they’re here. When I think about a meaningful day, the moments that come to mind are often small enough that I could have missed them.
