The Seasons of Life

The Seasons of Life…

Good morning,

Today, let’s find rest and reassurance in the promise of God’s unwavering love and support, even as the seasons of life change.

Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
Isaiah 46:4

‘Even to your old age and gray hairs, I am He.’ These words from Isaiah 46:4 are like a gentle embrace, reminding us that God’s love doesn’t fade with time. In a world that often glorifies youth, God’s promise spans the entirety of our lives—from the first breath to the last sigh. He’s not just a fair-weather friend; He’s committed to sustaining, rescuing, and carrying us through every season.

Think about it: the same God who knit you together in your mother’s womb pledges to carry you through your twilight years. He’s not just watching from afar; He’s eager to support you in every challenge, ready to lift the burdens of life, whether they are physical, emotional, or spiritual.

Each gray hair is a testament to His faithfulness, each wrinkle a story of His sustaining grace. Your value isn’t tied to productivity or appearance but rooted in being God’s beloved creation. So today, whether you’re in the bloom of youth or the richness of old age, remember: you are cherished beyond measure. God’s care for you has no expiration date, and He’s not finished with you yet. Every day is another chance to experience His enduring faithfulness.

In what ways does God carry you through each day?

How can you draw new strength from Him in this moment?

Dear Heavenly Father,
What a joy it is to know that You love me at every stage of life! From my first breath to my last, You promise to carry and sustain me. Thank You for seeing beauty in my gray hairs and value in my years. As I journey through life, fill me with the excitement of experiencing Your faithfulness in new ways each day. Help me to see my age as a testament to Your enduring grace, and remind me that Your purpose for me never expires. Give me courage to embrace each day as an adventure with You, knowing that Your strength is made perfect in my weakness. Thank You for cherishing me always and for the wonderful plans You still have for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

God has not promised skies always blue, flower-strewn pathways all our lives through; God has not promised sun without rain, joy without sorrow, peace without pain. But God has promised strength for the day, rest for the labor, light for the way, grace for the trials, help from above, unfailing sympathy, undying love.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed 🙏🏼
