An Encouragement at Any Age

Children go through developmental milestones such as learning to crawl, pull up, walk and develop language. Some children are early in mastering these objectives while others are late, but in time most children are successful in acquiring these skills. Each stage of life has to be met with resilience to overcome expected frustrations.

While there are major milestones to be experienced and accepted during each stage of life, most obstacles can be overcome. One myth about senior adulthood is that a decline in mental functioning is inevitable. While this is true in some cases, your attitude and willingness to exercise your intellect will keep you sharp as you grow older.

Again, it's your attitude and beliefs that impact your personal joy and satisfaction while acquiring a life worth living. Being an encouragement to others is a rewarding task at any age. Proverbs 16:24 is a reminder that  "Encouragement is like a honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and healing to the bones.” Why not adopt encouragement as your objective?

~Ecclesiastes 12:1a New International Version

I have created you and cared for you since you were born.

I will be your God through all your lifetime, 
yes, even when your hair is white with age.

I made you and I will care for you. 

I will carry you along and be your Savior.
