Do these actually mean the same thing?
I would have thought numbering our days was something we should not do as we have no idea how many we have?

Rev. Paul said...

In this case, Linda, it’s a colloquialism meaning to use the days wisely, not wasting any time. We mustn’t take our time on Earth for granted, but to remember that our time is limited.

Ah. Okay. Thank you for the clarification.
