God At Eventide 28 Oct
Growing Young
There will never be a time when you will have conquered all of self. As you mount higher and higher you will see more and more clearly the errors and shortcomings of your character and life.
That is as it should be. Progress means youth. Arrested growth means stagnation. Lack of progress and failure to conquer mean - old age.
In Eternal Life there can be no old age. Eternal Life is Youth-Life, full and abundant Life. "And this is Life Eternal that they may know Thee, the only True God and JESUS Christ, Whom Thou hast sent."
Comments: C.S. Lewis wrote: "This year, or this month, or, more likely, this very day, we have failed to practise ourselves the kind of behaviour we expect from other people." It is a good thing to remember, especially as we grow older and (ahem) “wiser.”
