Have
you ever wanted to be a different age? Younger people cannot wait to grow up.
Elderly people wish they were young again. Some people aren’t happy no matter
what age they are. It helps to understand that it is God’s will for you to be the age you are right now.
It
is no accident that you are alive on earth at this time. God didn’t want you to
live in the 1600s but created you to live at this time. Acts 17:25-26 says, “He Himself gives to all people life and breath and all things; and He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and boundaries of their habitation, that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us."
This verse tells us God determined your lifetime to be
now. Every stage of life has its
benefits. Whether you are 25 or 65 years old, be happy with your age. If
you are a parent, enjoy every stage of life of your child. If you are tired of changing
diapers, don’t wish for your child to grow up. Enjoy that stage of life because
it will pass too quickly. If you are getting older, don’t keep wishing you were
younger. You cannot go back in time, so enjoy your stage of life right now. It’s
God’s will for you to be at this age—and it’s also God’s will for you to be
thankful for it (see 1 Thessalonians 5:18). www.kentcrockett.blogspot.com www.makinglifecount.net
