GROWING WITH JESUS!

Isaiah 46:4 – Devotional

Isaiah 46:4

“Even to your old age and gray hairs I am He, I am He who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.”

I once read an article in the newspaper that mentioned something about an elderly man. As I scanned down through the article, I was shocked to read that the man was two years younger than I am. If he was categorized as an elderly man, what does that make me? I guess the answer is in the eyes of the beholder!

My mom used to have a rental property behind her house. A widower lived there and she always referred to him as the old man. One day I challenged her by reminding her that he was three years younger than she was. (That did not go over well with my mom!)

Sometimes I observe people who may be about 35, and wonder, at what point are they no longer considered young people? That is a tough question. It is a fact that many in our modern culture seem to worship the concept of youth.

Can I let you in on a little secret? It is okay to allow yourself to mature (grow old). In Scripture many people were the greatest blessing in their latter years. I have come to the conclusion that age is not a determiner. Regardless of our age we need to put our shoulder to the wheel and grow more like Jesus each and every day.

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
