Opening Discussion:

  • What is something you are looking forward to this year?

Read and Discuss

Psalm 90:10-12 CSB

10 Our lives last seventy years or, if we are strong, eighty years. Even the best of them are struggle and sorrow; indeed, they pass quickly and we fly away.

11  Who understands the power of your anger? Your wrath matches the fear that is due you.

12 Teach us to number our days carefully so that we may develop wisdom in our hearts.

Read Psalm 119:11-19

11 I have treasured your word in my heart

so that I may not sin against you.

12 Lord, may you be blessed;

teach me your statutes.

13 With my lips I proclaim

all the judgments from your mouth.

14 I rejoice in the way revealed by your decrees

as much as in all riches.

15 I will meditate on your precepts

and think about your ways.

16 I will delight in your statutes;

I will not forget your word.

17 Deal generously with your servant

so that I might live; then I will keep your word.

18 Open my eyes so that I may contemplate

wondrous things from your instruction.

19 I am a resident alien on earth;

do not hide your commands from me.
