Welcome This is My Story: What is yours?

“The glory of the young is their strength; the gray hair of experience is the splendor of the old.” (Proverbs 20:29 NLT).

The beauty of my youth is as pale as the gleams of last April, compared with the full splendor of summer.

This is my old age: The Splendor of Summer. They call it “The Golden Age” for a reason! ‘Tis the season to get comfortable with who you really are.

By now you will have made peace with your appearance. And therefore, there is no need to hide those wrinkles that are not hard due to bitterness. But they are soft because of the sweetness of a heart given to the Lord.

Your silver hair speaks of wisdom gained throughout a full life. So the combination of your pleasant face and your silver hair is a source of hope for the emerging generation.

I have decided to enjoy my journey on this earth until the last drop of my existence. And for this I have borrowed as my own the Apostle’s declaration:

“But none of these things deter me. Nor do I count my life of value to myself, so that I may joyfully finish my course and the ministry which I have received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.” (Acts 20:24 MEV).

This is my gratitude to God for giving me 77 years of life on this earthly pilgrimage.

This is My Story! What’s Yours?

Isn’t it true that sometimes we find ourselves in circumstances that seem to have no way out? We are dragged down the dark path of divorce, financial crisis, the death of a child, etc. Indeed, it’s a dark and scary road to travel. And there is no map that guides us in that dense darkness.

On that lonely journey, our feet are the only companions, but they are very feeble. How long will they last until total collapse? There is a moment when you stop and reflect. You find yourself totally lost, with no sense of direction. Precisely, that is the moment when you think about the eternal.

You’ve heard the Bible stories, amazing rescues, and wonder-filled miracles. Then you realize that you only have a mental knowledge of Jesus. The governor principle of the kingdom is relation.

When you realize that eternity is in your heart. And you learned, as the children of Israel learned to feed on the lamb to stay safe on their journey to the promised land. Today the lamb is the Bible, the Word of God. And the way you can eat it is by reading it and digesting it.

When you come to this awareness, you see clearly that you do not need any map. Now you see that God is your home! And no matter how dark the journey is, there is joy.

“… weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” (Psalms 30:5 MEV).

By feeding on the Word of God you learned that time is not measured by what you are going through, but by where you are going.
