When we are young we go through all kinds of trials and testings. There are some that are harder than others but the Lord brings us out of them time and again.

They are all part of our preparation for things future because we were being taught how to trust and lean upon the Lord.

In older age we are experiencing harder things that are unavoidable but our "strength is firm," because we have been fighting our way to heaven by faith in God. The outcome is always sure and our hopes are never disappointed.

Jon and I are facing a new time in our lives after his recent heart attack. We know the Lord is with us and our future is in His hands.

I love these words by Amy Carmichael that have become very dear to me in old age. They are inscribed in my Bible and referenced often:

"We stand, when we are young, on the sunny slope among the pines, and look across an unknown country to the mountains. There are clouds, but they are edged with light. We do not fear as we dip into the valley; we do not fear the clouds.

Thank God for the splendid fearlessness of youth. And as for older travelers whom the Lord has led over the hill and the dale, they have not been given the spirit of fear. They think of the way they have come since they stood on that bright hillside, and their word is always this: There are reasons and reasons for hope and for happiness, and never one for fear." - Amy Carmichael

"We were cast down but not destroyed." - 2 Cor.4:9
