"GROWING OLD"
Hi folks, this is Two Texas PawPaw. Well, I will be limited to how long I can stay on here this morning because I'm back to being one eyed again. This patch will have to be worn for about three days, but the good news is I don't have to go back to the doctor for 6 months. I have recently became aware that the reason all these things are happening to me is because I am 'Growing Old'. But there is also comfort in that, because I found a scripture recently that gave me a different view of 'Growing Old'. Growing Old can be dangerous. The trail is treacherous and the pitfalls are many. One is wise to be prepared because you know it's coming. It's not like God kept the process a secret. It's not like you are blazing a trail as you grow old. It's not as if no one has ever done it before. If we just look around, we find we have ample opportunity to prepare and ample case studies to consider. If growing old catches you by surprise, don't blame God. He gives you plenty of warning and plenty of advice. Your last chapters can be your best. Your final song can be your greatest. It could be that all of your life has prepared you for a grand exit. God's oldest have always been among his choicest. That verse of scripture I refered to is found in ISAIAH 46:4---EVEN WHEN YOU ARE OLD, I WILL BE THE SAME. EVEN WHEN YOUR HAIR HAS TURNED GRAY, I WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU.-----Yes, that is exactly what the Bible says, check it out! This is Two Texas PawPaw, signing off, and, the good Lord willing and the creeks don't rise, I'll be back tomorrow.

This is good advice!! I actually Like getting "Older" I have lived a "Good" Life, can't complain really or have any regrets!!! I know where I'm going when I die, and it's a MUCH Better place than here!! I will Miss everyone untill they get up there with me, but Growing old is actually fun seeing your Grandbaby's grow up, and just doing what you wanna do now that your kids are grown up and on their own. Thanks, Dad!!
I hope you feel better soon!!
