Sometimes I get tickled at God’s sense of humor.
I mean really if anyone should have a great sense of humor
it would be The Creator of all things.
For example look over to your right at my profile
picture. See all that gray hair? I mean really I am not even 50 years old
yet. Close but not yet. I tried so hard to keep that gray in
check. Spending hours upon hours and
going through bottles upon bottles of colorant to hide what was sprouting out
of my head.
Finally I gave up.
After every couple of weeks looking into the mirror to see a growing
halo (and not the angelic kind) I bit the bullet and stepped away from the
bottle. Surely I could find better ways
to spend that money that I was investing at a losing speed on hair color. My
only prayer was God please let it look halfway decent.
It took over a year to let it grow out and subject family
and friends to the awful transition but it finally got there.
Then as I was reading in Psalm I came across a verse that
tickled me and had me saying “Yes, Lord Yes” at the same time.
Here’s the verse.
“Now that I am old and gray, do not abandon me, O God. Let
me proclaim your power to this new generation, your mighty miracles to all who
come after me.” Psalm 71:18
Isn’t that first part a hoot?
But more than that I do desire to proclaim His power and His
mighty miracles to all who come after me!
This new generation needs every one of us. They need to hear
how God has been faithful to us. They need to know that He too will be faithful
to them.
Share your story. Proclaim His Power. Speak of His miracles.
Let’s impact the next generation.
Do you have a God sense of humor story? Please share.
Blessing!
Cynthia
