The young grandson called the other day to wish his grandmother Happy Birthday. He asked how old she was, and when she told him "62" he was quiet for a moment. Then he asked, "Did you start at 1?"
Application:
Age changes the looks of individuals. To a child an adult looks old, wrinkled, and frail, and only after the child has matured and aged, himself, can he understand the wisdom of older people. That’s the way it is with God’s Word. His Word is timeless and only after we have caused the pages of His Word to become aged, wrinkled, and frail with wear can we understand God and His ways. To know God’s wisdom we must first read the Bible and apply its words to our lives. The world may change, but God and His direction for our lives never change.
Scripture: Proverbs 14:8 The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit.
