YOU ARE OLD

In Joshua 13:1 the Bible says that Joshua was old and advanced in years when the Lord said to him, “You are old and advanced in years.” God just says it. He doesn't beat around the bush. He doesn't say, “You know, Joshua, you look pretty good for your age.” He just says, “Dude, you’re old.” In our culture today, we don't look forward to getting old. In fact, we dread it and even try to avoid. And when we get there we won't even admit it. God doesn’t look at getting old in that way. God doesn't want you to dread getting old or fear getting old. He wants you to embrace it. In our culture we categorize age. With babies we measure age by weeks. As they get older, we measure them by half years and then full years. Then we reach a point where we begin to measure age by decades. I’m in my 50's. Ultimately, we reach the point where it's impolite to even talk about it. After God tells Joshua he is old, He then says, “But I still got work for you to do!” Folks, listen, you are never too old to serve Jesus. You're never too old for God not to have a plan for you, not to have a purpose for you.
