My shoulder popped. Rotator cuff. Doing push ups and it popped. This doesn't happen, not to me. Regular work outs would prevent injury, keep me strong and supple. Not so.
I should have known. Face sagging. A turkey chin. Skin wrinkling. Belly growing.
Motivation decreases too. I had rather sit than exercise or write.
Is this really happening. Yes. Everything is fading.
Except one thing. As we age we advance toward heaven where we will experience overwhelming joy. With each new month. No each new day, we move toward ever lasting peace, and unimaginable love. And new bodies too, the Bible promises.
All of us can take courage in these words:
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day….So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 Corinthians 4: 16, 18
