FROM TODAY’S READING (11/29/2021)…
"Her Majesty believes you are as old as you feel, as such The Queen does not believe she meets the relevant criteria to be able to accept, and hopes you will find a more worthy recipient."
Tom Laing-Baker
Private secretary to 95-year-old Queen Elizabeth.
Quote is response to British magazine wanting to name her "Oldie of the Year."
Job 12:12-13 (NLT) Wisdom belongs to the aged, and understanding to the old. But true wisdom and power are found in God; counsel and understanding are his.
Psalms 92:12-15 (NLT) But the godly will flourish like palm trees and grow strong like the cedars of Lebanon. For they are transplanted to the Lord’s own house. They flourish in the courts of our God. Even in old age they will still produce fruit; they will remain vital and green. They will declare, “The Lord is just! He is my rock! There is no evil in him!”
Proverbs 16:31 (NLT) Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is gained by living a godly life.
