King David's Secret to Youthful Strength
"He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagles."
Psalm 103:2
How could an elderly person or a woman or man of midlife renew the strength of their youth?
In our modern time, technology has developed a lot of antiaging products ranging from vitamins, nutirients , food supplements, facial care , body care , that will help renew the vitality of the body and youthful appearance. These are all good products , nothing is wrong with using these things but don't forget the most important thing, our personal relationship with the Lord.
David's youth is renewed by his intimate fellowship with GOD. Why this is so ?
When you have fellowship with GOD, your minds are renewed , your outlooks in life are renewed, your attitudes are improved, your depressions are healed When you find joy in God's presence you became content and comforted from your frustrations. Your worries and cares are removed because they are entrusted to the Lord.
There is a woman in our church who has a youthful looks despite the pressures and stress in her work. She is already about fifty years old, but she still looks in her mid thirties..I asked her about her secret to her youthful face. She said she spends much time in prayers. Fellowship with God helps us to manage our stress. Stress contributes a lot in bringing down our immune system. We have to find ways to manage our stress. Amidst a stressful day, it is best to find time to commune with God.
While waiting upon the Lord , the Lord shows to you a lot of alternatives in life you could take. The Lord brightens your perspective in life. As you fellowship with Him, He inspires you to live and refreshes your spirit. As you dwell in His love, you are comforted by the promises in His Word. So relationship with God brings you into life's greater dimensions. The best thing in life is to be intimate with God and dwell in His love and promises.
