As I Age
As I age,
I become more concerned with the details of life.
I find I’ve very little control
About the bigger life issues:
The slowing down,
The increasing inability
To do what my mind says I still can;
So, my body just laughs.
As I age,
I become more concerned with the details of life:
Like the placement of the bathmat,
About not leaving the hose on the lawn
But returning it to its place by the house,
Where it belongs
As I age,
I’m unable to travel as I would desire,
But I can still travel through a book.
I’m unable to work the hours I did,
So I have more time for my Devotions.
I’m unwilling to dwell on my aches and pains,
So I can dwell instead on what God wants of me.
If unable to do,
Still, I can pray!
Boy can I relate, after banging up my knee!
As you age, you continue to inspire me with your sincere devotion to God and Christ’s way of life. Truly blessed to have you in my life.
thanks
I think we can all relate to this … thanks!
