WOW, I was needing that word. Getting old ain’t for sissy’s, but getting old without Jesus is an eternal death sentence!

Excellent writing. I’m with you in total agreement Phil. I’ll be 75 in February. We watch Unashamed every chance we get. God bless!

Well said, Phil!! Realizing the brevity of life on earth SHOULD make us form the BEST priority--living for the Lord and bringing others to Him.

Good word, Phil. Go back to check on Psalm 90:12. you are correct about the "teach us to number our days" comment being in the Psalms but it is actually a quote of the prayer of Moses, not David. Just trying to help.

As usual, you provide such profound words of wisdom. I,too, am in my "golden years" and become more aware of my mortality eaxch day. Phil, it's true what you said about life being a blur. I look back and say "Where did the time go?" I try to prepare my mind and spirit for the time when I am called home. I look forward to the day I meet Jesus face to face and I hope he tells me "Well done thy good and faithful servant."
