Moses was 120 years old when he died, yet his eyes were not weak, nor his strength gone.
Deuteronomy 34:7
Ah, energy. I think we all wish we constantly had it. Yet, it’s just not realistic. As one who struggles with a sleep cycle, I can sure attest to that. Sometimes I’m up exceedingly early in the morning or late at night, and my good sense is telling me this is not a time to be up, yet my body has energy. I just cannot sit still; I must do something. And the worst feeling is when I’m tired and my body still has energy. I simply cannot explain how awkwardly frustrating that is.
Of course when I was a kid, I was a ball of energy. It wasn’t a problem. I was all over the place, into everything. But now that I’m an adult, I have those moments when my energy is gone, there’s no more to give or draw on.
Well, can’t our spiritual lives be the same way. Sometimes we’re filled with an energy, we’re struck with a passion and we’re going, sailing, yay! But then we crash when we’re confused or frustrated. As years and complications advance, more layers of life hit, and we can become more tired, our senses start to Wane, and some parts of what we knew we just don’t have any more.
Yet how bout Moses, even unto death, God made his eyes extremely healthy, his strength was never gone. What hope for us! I’m guessing none of us are planning on living 120 years, but we can all serve the Lord with gladness and goodness. We can have a passion to be kind to others and be filled with love and grace for our fellow man.
But I wonder, do our senses Wane even there? Can we become so self-focused, so caught up in our own stuff: confused by so many things to do, so many medications to take or problems our loved ones deal with, so worn down, we forget there’s always a joy in living for our Lord no matter who we are and where we’re at in life?
Dear friends, none of us knows how many years we have on this earth. Let’s, young or old, make the most of the time we have now, let alone the time we have left! Let’s rejoice in the Lord always, so we will feel our eyes wide open and our strength never leaving even unto death. Because you know if we have both of those things and especially the Lord in our heart, we’ll never die!
To God be the glory in Jesus Name
