When Joshua was an old man, the Lord said to him, “You are growing old, and much land remains to be conquered...' " (Joshua 13:1)
Joshua was between 85 and 100 years of age at this time. God, however, still had work for him to do. Our culture often glorifies the young and strong and sets aside those who are older. Yet older people are filled with wisdom that comes from experience. They are capable of serving if given the chance and should be encouraged to do so. Think about the older people in your life. How much time are you willing to learn from their experience?
