"The Time . . . "

I opened my little devotional quarterly this morning, and these words leaped out at me!  "THE TIME OF OLD AGE"!
Wow!  I thought!  I wasn't particularly blessed about the title, but I had to admit it fit me quite well!!  And, actually, I never want to complain about growing old, for God surely has some little ministry for me as long as He preserves my life, even if it is just to "Brighten the corner where I am"!

I love these verses from the 92nd Psalm:

     "The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.  Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.  They shall still bring forth fruit in old age: they shall be fat and flourishing; to shew that the Lord is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him."

"So, help me, Heavenly Father, as the New Year looms before me to sow good seeds that will bring forth a harvest of blessings for Your glory and the upbuilding of Your kingdom, I humbly pray in Jesus' Name.  Amen!"
