God’s Lifetime Is Forever
I will be your God throughout your lifetime—until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. I will carry you along and save you. Isaiah 46:4 NLT
Some could no longer remember.
As we sang “How great Thou art!” at the nursing home, I saw that some of my friends could no longer remember where they were or how they had come to live there. A few had forgotten their children’s names, and one or two, even their own names. But as we sang that familiar hymn, most had no trouble remembering the words as we lifted our voices in praise.
As the last notes faded away, I realized that what really matters is not how smart we are, how much money we have in the bank, or where we live—but how much we matter to God.
God has given us His promise to carry us not only during our years of beauty and youth but also through our white hair and failing memory.
God’s love is an eternal and unchanging commitment from Him. Even when everyone else forgets, He will still care for us. He has promised to carry us for a lifetime, and His lifetime is forever.
No matter your age or circumstances, remember God will carry you.

That is a great truth to hold on to. God loves us and is committed to being by our side through every situation. Thank you for sharing this encouraging word to remember that God is carrying us.
