I'm almost 70 years old and the hardest part of getting old is not my mind, but my body wearing out. I drop into a recliner chair and it feels so good while I'm there, but trying to get up out of it is getting harder every day. I used to eat all I wanted and stayed at 175 pounds, never gained, never lost. But after this last accident of a tractor running over me lengthwise, I find that it was awful easy to hit 250 pounds. The doctor told me enough's enough. But it does not come off like it went on.
I would like to relate this with my spiritual growth. And those of you who decide to follow Jesus, I plan on seeing you in heaven, where there'll be no more pain, no sickness, no dying. Everything will be beautiful and all our relationships will be God-centered. Plan on meeting me there. But pray for me as I will do for you.
