aging gracefully

You know not to lean on your own understanding; now you get to stop leaning on your looks.

“Do not let your adorning be external — the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear — but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious.” — 1 Peter 3:3-4, ESV

shhh

Stop the self-talk long enough for the Lord to speak His peace.

“Let me hear what God the Lord will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, to his saints; but let them not turn back to folly.” — Psalms 85:8, ESV

going nowhere

To receive God’s words and not obey them is like fueling your car and leaving it in the garage.
