Once you get to be 102, you'll have no fears...you'll just be a jolly old person
Gotta be aware of wind, both ways.
Getting older will either make someone get older or get better
with a little help. Look at Abraham & Sarah in the OT.

I am not looking forward to being old but i am looking forward to seeing Jesus.
I dont think so, my friend. Young or old, sick or well... God is with us always. And that's what should matter.
And that's why we care for our health too like a precious gift, do as well as we can to prevent these from happening. Our spiritual well-being is so valuable, but other people not just learn abt physical health and well-being, but practice it
.God bless all who care for the Temple of the Holy Spirit.
"Getting old ain't for sissies."
If we're going to make this a serious thread after all, directly against the intent of the one who started the thread... I take a philosophical perspective. I know I will get older and my abilities will diminish. What I cannot do in the future, I will not do. If it needs to be done anyway, I trust God will have someone in place to do it.
I will still do what I can as long as I can though. I park at the tail end of the church parking lot because I can still walk just fine, and I'm not parking closer until I get a LOT older and more stove-up. But when I do park closer, I will have good reason to and I'll have no shame about not being able to walk that far any more.

Don't be afraid of growing old...
You'll still do stupid stuff...only slower!

That's great!Don't be afraid of growing old...

I have noticed with some dismay that becoming an adult did not keep me from doing stupid stuff like I thought it would when I was a kid. But since old age will slow me down, at least I won't be doing as much stupid stuff by default.
Well shoot! Here I was hoping it would be easier to be good when I got old.Not necessarily so....we now have more time on our hands to do stupid stuff!
