If we are growing older, we should be growing wiser as well. If we are not, we are really not living, are we? Wisdom and age go hand in hand. Unfortunately, it’s not a guarantee. Some grow old and remain immature, never learning from their mistakes. While others grow in wisdom because they apply truth to everything they do. The key is the ability to be honest with oneself, and the desire to want to please God by doing what’s right. If you don’t have these desires you will grow old yet never reach your wisdom potential, and remain immature. Time is the equalizer of man. Those who use it wisely, truly learn to live life to the fullest. Those that don’t just grow old, aging beyond their ability to enjoy and appreciate the gift of a long life.
12 Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.
Psalms 90:12
