THE WORD – “A gray head is a crown of glory; it is found in the way of righteousness.” Prov. 16:31
I have a deep and sincere respect for the elderly mentors in my life.
Seasoned saints who have lived for God through every imaginable circumstance and come out on the other side…in victory.
I look to them for an example. I need their advice, guidance, encouragement and strength. These wonderful men and women of God have affected my life over and over again.
Look around you. Are there elderly people among your congregation that sometimes go unnoticed?
You may be missing out on an opportunity for a relationship filled with rich treasures of wisdom.
Do you already have someone like this in your life? I pray we learn to hear the voice of our elders. They can help us on this path to avoid some of the rough places because they have made their own mistakes. Let’s learn from them.
“Wisdom is with aged men, with long life is understanding.” Job 12:2
