The Sunrise Or Sunset Of Life
"In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams."
Acts 2:17
We always need to remember it's what you do, not when you do it.
Ted Williams, at age 42, slammed a home run in his last official time at bat.
Mickey Mantle, age 20, hit 23 home runs his first full year in the major leagues.
Golda Meir was 71 when she became Prime Minister of Israel.
William Pitt II was 24 when he became Prime minister of Great Britain.
George Bernard Shaw was 94 when one of his plays was first produced.
Mozart was just seven when his first composition was published.
Now how about this? Benjamin Franklin was a newspaper columnist at 16
and a framer of the United States Constitution when he was 81.
You're never too young or too old if God has given you the abilities. Recognize that age has little to do with ability.
Prayer: Ask God to give you the strength and wisdom to utilize the talents He has blessed you with throughout your life.
"Use what talents you possess: The woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best."*
~Henry Van Dyke
