Psalm 90:14-17 (ESV)
Moses' prayer
14 Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
I pray I wake and give thanks to the Lord for each new day he chooses to give me. I desire to rejoice in his goodness and be thankful for life.
15 Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, and for as many years as we have seen evil.
I pray that I will give thanks to my sovereign God for times of hardship and suffering just as easily as I give thanks for times of ease and comfort.
16 Let your work be shown to your servants, and your glorious power to their children.
I pray that I will give you ALL the glory, all the days of my life. I pray that my children will see you glorified in my marriage and through my parenting. I pray that my children will hunger to see God lifted high, exalted above all things.
17 Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands upon us; yes, establish the work of our hands!
I pray that I not waste my time but rather make every second of my life one that is filled with meaning and purpose. I pray my purpose is to enjoy God and make him known to myself, to my family, and to the world. Let me not look back with regret or guilt but rather look to the cross to remind me to fight for the gospel.
