“Even to your old age and gray hairs I am He, I am He who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.” Isaiah 46:4 (NIV)
Age brings changes. In today’s world, we hide changes. Gray hair is colored and broken teeth are crowned. We pretend that everything is the same, but we know it is not.
For humans, change is inevitable. For God, change is impossible. The God who created heaven and earth is the same today. The God who watched over us during childhood and adulthood has not changed. He promises to watch over us in our senior years. When we become weak, He will strengthen us. When we become weary, He will carry us. When trouble comes, will rescue us.
In Isaiah 46:4 the Lord makes 3 promises: “I will sustain you. I will carry you. I will rescue you.” God keeps His promises. And His promises have no expiration date. He will be faithful today. He will be faithful tomorrow. He will be faithful until the last day of life. What a wonderful God He is!
This really good. It needs to be shared with the folks at Wesminster.
