LIFE QUOTE – “It‟s OK to be old. That doesn‟t mean that you‟re washed up and useless. If you‟re a Christian, what it
really means is that you‟re just very, very close to seeing Jesus in person in heaven. In words especially dear to all the
„aging‟, Jesus said in John chapter 14, „Don‟t let your hearts be troubled… In my Father‟s house are many rooms. I am
going there to prepare a place for you.‟ You might call it homecoming.” Pastor Mark Jeske, speaker on “Time on Grace”
