As we age, let’s gain our strength from the Lord. He changes
our countenance. He changes our attitude. He affects the way we react to our
circumstances, including physical change. Live in awe of Him, with a
willingness to serve and you can be like the Proverbs 31 woman.
Charm is
deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be
praised. Proverbs 31:30
Aging can bring out
the inner beauty, the type of beauty that is pleasing to God. This type of beauty never fades. I know women
like that and I hope you do, too. Watch and learn from the wisdom of older
women of faith. Follow their lead.
Rather,
it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet
spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight. 1 Peter 3:4
Lord,
It is beautiful to see the inner beauty of the aging, the
gentle and quiet spirit oozing with Your love. Guide us to age with grace and
confidence, in knowing we are just getting a little closer to home.
Amen
