And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you. (Isaiah 46:4)
The year is very old, and here is a promise for our aged friends; yes, and for us all, as age creeps over us. Let us live long enough, and we shall all have hoar hairs; therefore we may as well enjoy this promise by the foresight of faith. When we grow old our God will still be the I AM, abiding evermore the same. Hoar hairs tell of our decay, but He decayeth not. When we cannot carry a burden and can hardly carry ourselves, the Lord will carry us. Even as in our young days He carried us like lambs in His bosom, so will He in our years of infirmity. He made us, and He will care for us. When we become a burden to our friends and a burden to ourselves, the Lord will not shake us off, but the rather He will take us up and carry and deliver us more fully than ever. In many cases the Lord give His servants a long and calm evening. They worked hard all day and wore themselves out in their Master's service, and so He said to them, "Now rest in anticipation of that eternal Sabbath which I have prepared for you." Let us not dread old age. Let us grow old graciously since the Lord Himself is with us in fullness of grace. C. H. Spurgeon

I hope I can learn how to grow old graciously. At what age are we considered old anyway? Isn't that once we turn about 90?
Hey, I've seen some people in their 80s walk circles around me!

I Peter 1:23-25 "For you have been born again not of seed that is perishable but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring Word of God. 24 For, 'All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls off, 25 but the Word of the Lord endures forever.' And this is the Word which was preached to you."

We will have incorruptible bodies in heaven.
No more sickness, no more death, no more sorrow -- That's the place we will be carried to. Isn't it wonderful?

No more distractions, no doubts, no fears, no veils, no weariness of body, we shall behold Him and be enveloped in His Glory. We will sing and dance before Him in perfect harmony of fellowship, and will glorify His Name forever! Hallelujah!

The New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven.
I look forward to the day when we can walk on those streets of Gold. No darkness is there. No evil surrounding us. All of our needs will be met.
