Hey sunsets in Italy are great too!!!! This is another picture from our trip to Italy in 2003. It is a beautiful sunset that Tracie took for us.
I was just wondering, since I turned 60 in July, how long would I be a good witness to God’s love in this world. Is 60 time to retire from my Lord and Saviour? What age will you decide you have done all you can and just quit? Even though we may be in the sunset of our lives, we are called to be His witnesses to the world. It is never time to say I have done my part, let someone else takeover. We will never be too old to give God glory. We will never be too old to see the wonderful things God is doing. When we are old enough to not get out anymore, we will be able to work on a card ministry or perhaps some craft that we can still do. It is a matter of thinking about God and not ourselves in our Golden Years. Is there a time that we can say is appropriate to not be a witness? This pastor doesn’t think so. Get the wheels on them walkers oiled up and get on out there. You have lived a long life and have much to witness to all the things God has done for you in your life. How He has helped you through the rough times? If you “believe,” you will witness and through your witness you will grow. Start witnessing now and it will grow into a lifelong habit.
A question we each need to ask ourselves is “Am I witnessing to the love of Jesus Christ for myself and for this world or is my faith really in myself and what I do for myself each day?”
If we are 8 years old or 108 years old we must glorify God in all that we do and all that we say! In the sunset of our lives our witness to the love of God and Jesus Christ must continue to shine bright like the beauty of sunsets like these.
Have a blessed, witness filled day, Randy
