Young, proud Strong, able I walked with my head held high Doing God's things my way– Exulting, Exalted in my living independence And it was good. But not good enough. Aging, humbled, Often weak, and not so able I walk looking up eyes upon the Lord Doing God's thing in His way–as best I know– Grateful to be learning living in dependence. And it is good. It is very good. —Nancy Spiegelberg

Isaiah.46:4 (NIV)
Even to your old age and gray hairs
I am he, I am he who will sustain you.
I have made you and I will carry you;
I will sustain you and I will rescue you."
