Growing Old

“The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head.”

Prov. 20:29

“The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.  Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.  They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing.”

Ps. 92:12-14
