It surprises me how fast time flies, or as David, my son says it, How fast we pass through time! This month I will be 55 years old. Seems just awhile ago I figured out when mid-life began. I was well into that period of life before I figured it out. Now I am in my mid-fifties and wondering if I made it to old age yet. Apparently not. I cannot join a club of those who are retired, my IRA can not be used yet, Social Security will not start for awhile and I am have too much to do in the Lord’s work at hand to even think about taking off. I am comforted that God is still on the throne, His Word still trustworthy, no promise of His has been empty, and His grace is ever abounding to this redeemed sinner in Christ. Not to mention the blessings of family!

Let time come as it will. One can only know God’s Word is trustworthy, that His promises are faithful and His grace is sufficient as one barges on seeking to do His will.

And may this be the reality of my life as long as it lasts!
