I have a birthday coming this spring. As I realize I will be three quarters of a century old and I have fewer days ahead of me than behind, I have been doing a lot of reflecting on the years gone by.
Interesting – sometimes I cannot remember what I had for lunch but memories of life when I was five or six are so vivid.
If I had to say what these reflections have led me to conclude about life so far, this song says it all. Committing my life to Jesus Christ at six years of age was the best decision I have made.
Life has brought joy and sorrow, moments of great excitement and moments of despair. But through it all, I see the goodness of God.
Beautiful. And happy forthcoming birthday!

Couldn’t agree with you more, Barb. I accepted Jesus into my life as a young child also. Though some people might think we missed out on a lot of living, they’d be sadly mistaken. WE know, the abundant life (John 10:10) Jesus has provided all these decades far exceeds anything this world has to offer!

At my age as I look at those who did a lot of living and then at my life I think I got the better deal in this life – and then the hope of eternal life to come.

Glad you enjoy it. I’m going through PT. I had Covid in December and it has left me with muscle spasms and pain in neck and shoulders.
