In March, I passed another birthday. Some approach like a Carnival cruise. Others go by like kidney stones. A friend gave me a card with several funny, light-hearted aging quips, completions to the adage, "You know you're getting older when ..."

Well done, Chuck, on another birthday. I'm some years behind you but not many (oh, to be 55 again!). I continue to pray for you that "thy youth is renewed like the eagle's" Psalm 103:5b KJV. Though I don't guess it'll be long before that scripture is fulfilled for all the Body. (Some folks call us religious nuts. The answer is, when we're gone, it's going to be tough for all you squirrels.) Very much appreciated your article, especially about making the years count for God. A great contemporary example is the well-known tract publisher, Bro. Jack Chick, of Ontario, Calif. He is well into his 80s and a US Army combat veteran of WW2, New Guinea and Okinawa, also a widower but still putting out the tracts as his web site shows. Bro. Chick has detractors like you have. You will both long outlast them all.
