Scriptures for Me Today (and maybe for you, too)

Unless you die young, we all face old age. I am so thankful for scripture verses that encourage me as my body struggles to do the things that used to come easily. Our pastor last week said that because of sin, death entered the world and that means the aging process (arthritis, diseases, aches, pains, etc.) began when Adam and Eve chose to disobey God. It is only through Christ that we overcome death. The final victory was His and He made it ours, too when He arose from that tomb!

  1. I lean on the scripture in Psalm heavily. He is my life, not just a part of my life, but my whole life and that keeps me going with the ailments that come with aging. I may get laid down for a while but He always raise me up again and again. I tell everyone when I am sick, close to death God does not have my house ready yet, when its done I am out of here. Great reminders, thanks.

  2. And here’s another: “Even to your old age I will be the same, And even to your graying years I will carry you! I have done it, and I will bear you; And I will carry you and I will save you” (Isaiah 46:4).

    Thank you for the encouraging post, Vickie.
