Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.
Psalm 90:12
He controls the course of world events; he removes kings and sets up other kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the scholars.
Daniel 2:21
And they were singing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb:
"Great and marvelous are your works, O Lord God, the Almighty. Just and true are your ways, O King of the nations. Who will not fear you, Lord, and glorify your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous deeds have been revealed."
Revelation 15:3-4
Lord God, the almighty, you are in charge. We grow where you have planted us. We sing a new song in a sometimes strange land. We learn to love our work. We thank you for the gifts you have given. Amen.
