“Teach us to number our days, so that we may grow in wisdom.” (Ps.90:12)
In many ways life is like a bag of potato chips. You eat one, then another. Without thinking. Before you know it, they’re all gone.
But life isn’t really like a bag of potato chips. The bag is the Lord’s. It is not ours to consume mindlessly. Furthermore, He alone knows how many chips are in the bag.
So eat slowly. Savor each one, as if it were your last. And remember to give thanks every time you reach in for another one.
