HOW OLD IS TOO OLD?
Just read in the WESTERN RECORDER about Duncan Smith who celebreated his 100th birthday on July 1. He has been a long-time pastor in Western Kentucky. Just this month he preached a sermon at the West Providence Batist Church. He used James 4:13-16 and it sounds like a terrific message, "What is Your Life?" He said that a person has six lives-- what the world knows of you, what your friends know of you, what your family knows of you, what your church knows about you, what you know about you, and what God knows about you. Interesting and to the point! Retiring is sort of a modern invention, isn't it? Can you think of Simon Peter, Apostle Paul, Martin Luther, John Calvin, Billy Graham, or Mother Theresa retiring? How does one know when he or she is too old? What do you think?
