Psalm 90:12 (TEV) Teach us how short our life is, so that we may become wise.
Ephesians 5:15-17 (TEV) So be careful how you live. Don't live like ignorant people, but like wise people. 16 Make good use of every opportunity you have, because these are evil days. 17 Don't be fools, then, but try to find out what the Lord wants you to do.
