“It`s not how old you are, it`s how you are old.”
― Jules Renard
I’m thankful to Jules for giving me an idea for this devotional. Are there some very old Bible characters that relate to that statement? Glad you asked.
By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.
Joshua 14:10-11
And now, behold, the Lord has kept me alive, as He said, these forty-five years, ever since the Lord spoke this word to Moses while Israel wandered in the wilderness; and now, here I am this day, eighty-five years old. As yet I am as strong this day as on the day that Moses sent me; just as my strength was then, so now is my strength for war, both for going out and for coming in.
Do us all a favor and end old age as a Sarah or a Caleb. Give it some consideration.
