| Dear Young Christian: |
| Last week I was soundly defeated in a ping-pong game by a young person some thirty five years my junior. I realized that I am not twenty years old anymore and that I am very out of practice. I concluded that time does make a difference. It seems like just a few years ago my younger brother and I used to play every evening, and the competition was very intense. We talk about the aging process, which is just a comfortable way of saying we are getting older, and it is certainly a reality. |
| For the Christian it is a great comfort to know that though things change in this world, and the body slowly wears out, yet there is a better world ahead. At the coming of the Lord our bodies will be changed. The Bible tells us: “We shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed” (1 Corinthians 15:51-52). It can’t be soon enough for me! How about you? Is this your hope too? |
