Teach us to count our days

So last night I was sitting at my computer, listening to my itunes library, and this old Chris Rice song (yes I do love him) came on, "Life Means so Much." As I listened, I was looking at the desktop background on my computer screen, a picture I love of some of the kids Andy met when he was in South Africa a couple weeks ago (you can read about his journey here). These words from the song just stuck out at me as I looked at their beautiful faces: "Teach us to count our days, teach us to make the days count. Lead us in the better ways, that somehow our souls forgot, Life means so much..." And looking at those faces as those words played in my ears, it was obvious to me...how to make the days count.
