Dying Full of Days

[S] Job 42:17 --
17 And Job died, an old man and full of days.

[O] What a blessed life Job has led here on earth.  The key operative here is "full of days."  I want to say that at the end of my life, too -- I lived and died full of days.  Job's life was going pretty well until he was tested and all of his possessions were removed; and then with his un-helpful friends, Job went through some serious time of contemplation but came out of that with the right heart before God who eventually blessed Job materially as well as spiritually so that he would die as an old man, full of days.

[A] Not that it'll matter to me after I die, but I do want to be leaving behind a legacy to my children that living a life full of days in Christ is the most important thing one can live for.

[P] Dear Father, mold my life so that I would live my life full of days according to Your will.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.
