Psalm 91:16 <\/em>New King James Version (NKJV)<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n
With long life I will satisfy him,<\/em> And show him My salvation.\u201d<\/em><\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now I could complain and tell you<\/h6>\n
That life is full of woe<\/h6>\n
But that wouldn\u2019t give you much hope<\/h6>\n
On this crowed road as you go\u2026<\/h6>\n
Heartache and suffering is part of the trip<\/h6>\n
But there\u2019s no need to worry, let me give you a tip\u2026<\/h6>\n
If you\u2019re trying to walk alone, carrying a heavy load<\/h6>\n
Listen, there\u2019s a way to help you, on this long, winding, road<\/h6>\n
Jesus said,<\/h6>\n
Take my yoke upon you, and rest your weary head.<\/em><\/h6>\n
Yes, sixty-four years is quite some time, some stay longer and some go sooner\u2026<\/h6>\n
We don\u2019t know why\u2026<\/h6>\n
There\u2019s no dead-end, for the road ahead, take it by faith help others and spread<\/h6>\n
His love, on your journey to home\u2026<\/h6>\n
Life doesn\u2019t end; it truly begins; when the body dies but until then\u2026<\/h6>\n
Keep your eyes focused on Him\u2026<\/h6>\n
So in the realm of eternity\u2026<\/h6>\n
Sixty-four years, why, you\u2019re just a kid<\/h6>\n
Keep on plugging along<\/h6>\n
Do not grow weary, do not give up\u2026when you get tired; just sing a happy song\u2026<\/h6>\n
Remembering there\u2019s so much more to do\u2026<\/h6>\n
Things have a way of working out\u2026don\u2019t get bitter, and do not doubt.<\/h6>\n
Shuffling feet and no more teeth, hair falling out and bones that creak\u2026<\/h6>\n
Food has lost its flavor and body is weak\u2026<\/h6>\n
Mind forgetful and people don\u2019t speak\u2026<\/h6>\n
Heart pounding and skips a beat\u2026<\/h6>\n
Lotions and pills, doctor visits, better make out your will<\/h6>\n
Getting old is not for wimps\u2026<\/h6>\n
Why it\u2019s just inconvenient is all<\/h6>\n
Eyes growing dim<\/h6>\n
But one thing I know\u2026<\/h6>\n
He\u2019ll renew your strength when your Joy\u2019s in Him<\/h6>\n
I never knew it would be like this\u2026<\/h6>\n
Keep praising God and you will see\u2026<\/h6>\n
It\u2019s not the flesh who\u2019ll see Jesus the King\u2026<\/h6>\n
But the Spirit; living inside of thee\u2026<\/h6>\n
Youth renewed like the eagles\u2026<\/h6>\n
Strong and bold and agile, is the spirit who has been made free\u2026<\/h6>\n
Not born of the flesh, but born of God; these sixty-four years seems like only a flash\u2026<\/h6>\n
No need to worry, but simply ask,<\/h6>\n
And God will meet you there!<\/h6>\n

The Soul Takes Flight Poetry by MS O’Neill<\/strong><\/h6>\n
Psalm 90:14-17 The Message (MSG) <\/em><\/strong>Oh! Teach us to live well! Teach us to live wisely and well! Come back, God\u2014how long do we have to wait?\u2014 and treat your servants with kindness for a change. Surprise us with love at daybreak; then we\u2019ll skip and dance all the day long. Make up for the bad times with some good times; we\u2019ve seen enough evil to last a lifetime. Let your servants see what you\u2019re best at\u2014 the ways you rule and bless your children. And let the loveliness of our Lord, our God, rest on us, confirming the work that we do. Oh, yes. Affirm the work that we do!<\/em><\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
