Numbering our days as mindfulness
In this verse we are reminded that we should number our days. What an interesting concept! This is very much like the notion of carpe diem. It is a reminder that we should be mindful of each and every day, savoring what it gives us. Simply stated, it means that we should not take any opportunity to experience this life and our relationship with God for granted. This verse tells us that if we are to act deliberately with each moment in this way we will be rewarded with wisdom. This makes sense, in that a full presence will lead us to a deeper insight. Both with ourselves and with God's help.
