As I looked into the mirror this morning, I realized that there were a few more grey hairs…
I don’t like getting older! So like many others, I have succumbed to try holding onto my youth by coloring my hair, exercising to keep up my strength and using the latest skin care treatments… but even Solomon in all his wisdom said that this too is meaningless.
Let’s be honest… our looks… our health… and our circumstances change with time. All too often in ways we do not want!
However, with the passage of time, I am coming to terms with my getting older…
I find it helps to remind myself that God made me in His image… He knows me by name… and He even knows the number of hairs on my head, grey or otherwise!
Just as each season of nature has its own beauty and purpose, I too have my own beauty and purpose.
I may no longer have the hair color of my youth – ahem, unless I find it in a bottle of hair color – however, I find that by remembering that God has a purpose for me… it gives me a reason to get up each morning!
I no longer have to feel depressed or miserable about my aging which helps me get through the changing seasons of my life!
Until next time,
Peace, love and safe travels!
