Grow old along with me

The best is yet to be.

The last of life for which the first was made:

Our times are in His hand

Who saith ‘A whole, I planned.

Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!

Because of His great love for us, God who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions -it is by grace you have been saved. Ephesians 2:4-5

Give us the strength and courage, we pray, to follow you – wherever You lead us.

Why my soul are you downcast? Put your hope in God. Psalm 42:11

Come, my Lord says, seek God’s face.

Lord, I do seek Your face. Ps 27:8

God’s lamp shone over my head and by His light I walked through the darkness. Job 29:3

If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from His love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being on in spirit and purpose. Phil 2:1

For God is working in you, giving you the desire and power to do what pleases Him.

We can make our plans but the Lord determines our steps. Proverbs 16:9

Trust the Lord with all your heart and do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do and He will show you which path to take. Ps 3:5-6

Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning, great is Your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23
