Ain't gettin' old grand?!

Psalm 16:8, " I have set the Lord always before me.  Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken."

Getting old is really the lesser of the whole.  Indeed with age comes a wisdom I would not replace and I have NEVER wanted to go back.  But the older, I get the less I care what others think.  This was a pretty small well in the first place.  I learned early on that there were always haters and you cannot make everyone happy...this is especially true if you are giving up part of yourself to please them.  

The greater half of the whole is that I have learned to trust in the Lord more and more.  Oddly (???...not so much in God's economy), I learned most of this trust in the hardships of life...When God stripped me of everything I took pride in and He was all I had.  I learned to trust that with Him by my side, I really can and do have the strength to get through the storm and that He will always be "More than Enough"
