As
middle age rapidly approaches, I’m sometimes tempted to think that the best
part of my life is behind me. Now and then, I spend too much time looking in
the rear view mirror, so to speak, at past mistakes and regrets. Occasionally,
I chide myself, “At this age, I should
have it all together by now. I should have all my ducks in a row, but I don’t
even know where they all are!”
But
I take heart when I read promises like Proverbs 4:18 (below), and I smile and
say, “Amen!” And I toss the mailings from AARP in the garbage can. Until there’s
an organization called the AABGP, American Association of Bright and Glowing
Persons, I think I’ll pass.
“The ways of
right-living people glow with light; the longer they live, the brighter they
shine.”—PROVERBS 4:18
