Wow, that's the word enchanting me now a days.Till the last year I never could take this word, OLD into my life. Whether I accept it or not, I am gonna be considered as " senior citizen " in a short while.
Oh was that me who was much pampered and called as daddy's pet all the time of my childhood years?
Oh was that me who was jubilant, dashing, tomboyish and stylish all the time of my youth and then after wards?
Oh was that me who was economically independent, serene and dignified, all the time of my career, till I get married?
Oh was that me who was submissive, loving, responsible , all the time of my wife-hood?
Oh was that me who was lonely, dependent and sorrowful for the way world treated me; in the first few years of the time, when I lost my dear husband ?
Oh was that me who realized that the life is what we opt for, and started to live an undaunted life, swimming against the tides of life, just for the sake of my childrens' safety and future, facing the taunts of the society for my courage and decision making in the will of God?
Oh is it really me who is here sitting with my grand children, playing the games they like, and not very useful in any other area of life here in USA?
Oh yes, i see back and laugh cheerfully, thinking and brooding, wondering what life has kept for me in the coming deteriorate years , that are inevitable....
when prayed the Lord in my last blog to show me what is His will, the answer I got from Him is instant, and wonderful ,straight to my heart.
Its like this in 1 Chronicles 17th chapter.
And my prayer now is" Who am I , O Lord God, and what is my family, that you have brought me this far?
And as if this were not enough in your sight, O God, you have spoken about the future of the house of your servant. You have looked on me as thought I were the most exalted of men, O Lord God.
What more can me say to you for honoring your servant? for you know your servant, O Lord. for the sake of your servant and according to your will, you have done this great thing and made known all these great promises.
There is no one like you, O Lord, and there is no God but you, as we have heard with our own ears. And who is like your people.. the one nation on earth whose God went out to redeem a people for himself, and make a name for yourself, and to perform great and awesome wonders by driving and nations from before your people, whom you redeemed Lord, ? .......And now, Lord, let eh promise you have made concerning your servant and his house be established forever. Do as you promised, so that it will be established and that your name will be great forever. Then men will say, "the Lord Almighty, the God over Israel, is /........your servant found courage to pray to you. O Lord you are God...i
And now O Lord You have blessed it, and it will be blessed forever."
