Beauty is said to be in the eye of the beholder.
Age is something totally related to time.Time was made as a service to man.
There is no time in God.He is timeless.

DM - forgive me at the outset if I sound condescending, but you do sound a lot like I used to sound - before I got "old" or at least "older."
The whole focus of my walk with Christ was wrapped up in the Dispensational approach to Bible prophecy and I became something of an "expert" (other people's word, not my own) on the subject.
What I have found now that I'm starting to push up against 50 is that I missed a whole lot of life and living by being so absorbed with the endtimes stuff. As Apostolics we tended to place less importance on the "here and now" and always looked forward to everyone else suffering the wrath we figured they deserved.
Now all of that seems so shallow to me. I wish that I had spent more time just encouraging "sinners" with life affirming messages than with dire warnings of a doom I could not predict. I think that I would have had a greater impact in more lives that way, and more to show for it today.

Every last one of you who is 40 or over, and denying you are old need to repent for LYING!!!! Ya know good and well that yer old and just don't want to admit it!! Embrace your grey hairs and learn to love them, 'cause no matter how much Clairol you use they're still grey underneath the dye!! You know good and well you'd rather drive than walk, even if it is just a couple of blocks 'cause you will pay for it later!!! Live in the now and right now you are OLD!!!!

Bro. Rico,
How old are you? You don't know what you are talking about, young man!!
I love you as a brother but I am not lying. I do not color my hair, never have,
(I am only speaking for myself, I don't condemn anyone). I enjoy walking and
my husband of 48 yrs. and I walk on the track near our home. I am living in
the present (NOW) and I am not old! 
I am on no medication! I can bend forward and place my hands FLAT on
the floor without bending my knees! Can you do that?
I am getting older but I AM NOT OLD!!
Now, are you willing to repent??? 
Blessings,
Falla39

You've heard the adage you're only as old as you feel.........there are days the physical body is feeling mighty old but inside I still feel young. I'm closer to 60 than to 50 but for the most part feel much younger. It's in the attitude!
My mom was 85 when she passed away but said that you still feel 21 inside.
The secret is attitude. There are 20 yr olds that are OLD and those of 70 that are still young.  (just watch out for those old drivers)

Sister Falla39 has the best energy producer available and that is the power of the Holy Ghost. If you have ever met her, you would have recognized the uniqueness of this beautiful vessel of our Lord.

Sis. Sherri,
I am not on any vitimins. I can truly say the joy of the Lord is
my strength. It's just something I have done through the years.
My family teases me about it because none of them can do it!! LOL!
Having a little fun with Bro. Rico since he said anyone over 40 yrs.
old was old!  I am waiting to see if he can do the "bend"
thing!! LOL!!
God has been SO good to me and our family and I do not take it
lightly.
Blessings,
Falla39
