Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bring forth fruit in old age. Psalm 92:13-14
SA 92:13-14 {Some of the fruits of the Spirit seem to be especially and peculiarly characteristic of sanctified older years; and do we not want to bring them all forth? Look at the splendid ripeness of Abraham's faith in his old age; the grandeur of Moses' meekness when he went up the mountain alone to die; the mellowness of Paul's joy in his later Epistles; and the wonderful gentleness of John which makes us almost forget his early character of "a son of thunder" wanting to call down God's lightnings of wrath. And the same Spirit is given to us, that we, too, may bring forth "fruit that may abound," and always more fruit.
Now, the pruning, sharp, unsparing;
Scattered blossom, bleeding shoot!
Afterward, the plenteous bearing
Of the Master's pleasant fruit.
