No matter how well we care for this earthly body, it is wasting away and will soon be gone. <br />Blessings,<br />CharlotteCharlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12533075034458645148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162883238388829088.post-15887205767971455272012-03-28T01:37:18.896-07:002012-03-28T01:37:18.896-07:00I totally agree.I totally agree.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275456448997619944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162883238388829088.post-20826930884430114042012-03-27T14:18:10.798-07:002012-03-27T14:18:10.798-07:00Agreed.

But increasing and increasing over the past couple years... plus some other side effects. SO... the goal is to focus on the Lord, hear His voice and His instructions, and OBEY. Do I want to be finished with the struggling that no one would ever have thought I'm dealing with? YES! But, if nothing else, I will be with Him, both here on earth and for eternity. Leaving this "tent" behind won't be a bad deal.<br /><br />Nice sharing...caryjohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488368153291827383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162883238388829088.post-84974124191654647582012-03-25T14:37:22.956-07:002012-03-25T14:37:22.956-07:00I just returned from a bike ride in which I was re...I just returned from a bike ride in which I was reminded of my own mortality. :)<br /><br />It's so easy for me to get all wrapped up in my body and what it can and cannot do.

I like the scripture that says : these light afflictions are BUT FOR A MOMENTA but are working for us AN EXCEEDING WEIGHT OF GLORY. That's how I cope with the aging process- but you have given me new ammunition- thanks! The fact that our spirits grow stronger as our bodies wear out-is a great comfort !!marygemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17220939258166272783noreply@blogger.com
