How never to be old

Psalms 92:12-15; Romans 8:18; Galatians 1:3-4

1. What may we expect in old age?

The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God. They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, proclaiming, "The LORD is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him."

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father.

2. How did Paul view the present?

Paul consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
