Seek the Lord!
God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. 'For in him we live and move and have our being.'
Acts 17:27,28 NIV

"Teach us to number our days"
Our Lord, in all generations
you have been our home.
You have always been God--
long before the birth
of the mountains,
even before you created
the earth and the world.
At your command we die
and turn back to dust,
but a thousand years
mean nothing to you!
They are merely a day gone by
or a few hours in the night.
You bring our lives to an end
just like a dream.
We are merely tender grass
that sprouts and grows
in the morning,
but dries up by evening.
Teach us to use wisely
all the time we have.
Psalm 90:1-6, 12 CEV
