Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is gained in a righteous life.Proverbs 16:31 (ESV)
Many people may mourn the loss of their physical fitness or appearance as time passes by. Although physical beauty and youth are often considered desirable, it is rather the godly wisdom of a mature believer that should command the respect and reverence of those that are younger. Of course, fitness and health are good and important things! But we should not only strive after physical transformations but remember the importance to engage in our spiritual development and health.
Father, I pray that we may embrace every moment of life as an opportunity to grow closer to You and mature in our faith and understanding of You - knowing that old age and a grey head of hair is a crown of glory when found in those that are living a righteous life by faith. Amen.
