Genesis 17:1-2 (NIVUK)
1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, ‘I am God Almighty; walk before me faithfully and be blameless. 2 Then I will make my covenant between me and you and will greatly increase your numbers.’
The story of Abram/Abraham stands in stark contrast to our culture in the West which is so quick to write off the elderly. For God, no one is too old, or for that matter too young. His only concern is that we walk faithfully with him. Whatever your age, know that God sees you as important and of use for him, and offers you his blessing.
Father, how can I serve you today?
