NEVER TO OLD

Moses grew up in Egypt as an Egyptian prince. When he was forty he lost his privileges, all his status, and riches, and became a fugitive, a wanderer in the desert. He reached age fifty, then age sixty, then retirement age, in the middle of nowhere, a nobody, washed up, former Egyptian prince, now an old has been, his life almost over. Finally, he reached the age of eighty, and then God called him into ministry, and the rest is history. In fact almost all we know of Moses happened after he was eighty.

May I say; you may also have felt that your best days are past, that you have wasted to much time, that life has passed you by, that your greatest moments and usefulness to God is behind you and gone. But for the greatest servant of God in the Old Testament, life and ministry began at eighty. God is the God of the now, and there is no such thing as lost time. Dear friend, He will restore the years the locusts have eaten. You just have to rise to the call. You think about that.
