Golden-Agers Wisdom
`
I will give them a long, full life, and they will see how I can save. (Psalm 91:16, NCV)
I am come that you might have life, and that you might have it more abundantly (John 10:10,KJV)
He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagle’s! (Psalm 103:5, (NLT)
The memory of the righteous is blessed…..(Proverbs 10:7, NCV) [When I read this scripture, I think about God protecting the automatic recall (memory) of golden-agers. My prayer is that I have a sound mind all the days of my life. To me, this scripture represents a promise from God.]
The Lord blessed the last part of Job’s life even more than the first part. Job had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand teams of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys. ….Then Job died; he was old and had lived many years. (Job 42:12, 17, NCV)
Don’t allow your age to define you. Strive to get your passion back.

The greatest gift you can give to yourself is forgiveness. Forgive yourself and forgive others.
But, I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you. (Matthew 5:44, NKJV)
Don’t allow your mistakes to define you. We all make them. We also have a tendency to remember the negative before we remember the positive. We will remember the $10.00 we lost quicker than we remember the $10.00 we gained. I read recently that this is because the brain requires more processing when when it comes to handling negative information.
Life is too short to allow what happened in the past to define what will happen in the future. Let it go.
Gray hair is like a crown of honor. It is earned by living a good life. (Proverbs 16:31, NCV))
