Even when we grow old

Isiah 46:4

Even when you grow old.
We often think of being cared for as something that happens only for the Young. However if you look close at the scripture you will see that God cares for us even when we grow old. Not just when we are senior citizens but even when we are in our thirties or forties or sixties. Jesus looks after us in all aspects of life, in every age group and no matter how young or how old we are he takes care of us. So when you look around and you feel overwhelmed, you can look up and see that Jesus is reaching out, taking care of you; when you have a cold Jesus is touching your body and healing it from the inside. When you are up all night with the flu or anxiety Jesus is up all night with you. No matter what it is, no matter what your age, Jesus is taking care of you.

I am a young woman who grew up in British Columbia. In BC was all I ever wanted; I had my poodle (Max) and all my friends, Saturdays at the Vancouver Aquarium and Sunday afternoons at one of my favorite beaches it was paradise. But God had a different plan for my life and my dad's job landed us in Alberta and now where I remain, in small town Souris Manitoba. The transitions from paradise to prairie were difficult and I will admit that now 10 years later I still refer to home as Abbotsford BC. Through this crazy pathway trek across Canada I have had one true constant, God; and though none of it was easy, everything that has happened in my life has formed in me a true lasting friendship with the one I call Immanuel. Because no matter how far from home we are God is with us, and thanks to God I have found an almost completely over looked beauty in Manitoba. If you open your eyes you will see that God has planted wondrous things everywhere you go.
