Even if our bodies grow old, our muscles sag, and our minds lag, God can still use us for His glory.

The key may be up to us. How much do we want Him to use us when we grow old? Old age is not something to dread. Prepare as best you can, but cast your worries and cares on Jesus. Leave it up to God, and cooperate with Him as to how He wants to use you.

Our part is primarily to trust and believe His promise. Open our hearts to a greater definition of old age and to Your promise of usefulness and vitality as we grow older. Thank You for Your plans for our lives that You designed before we took our first breath—and for Your promise to keep using us until we draw our last.
