“They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green,”– Psalms 92:14 (NIV)
Psalm 92:14 is an encouraging reminder that growth, vitality, and purpose need not fade with age. It offers comfort to those who fear growing older might limit their ability to contribute or flourish.
But in faith, we have a spiritual timelessness where one continues to bear “fruit.” I think it refers to the qualities we associate with age, such as wisdom and perhaps influence.
We know when it speaks of staying “fresh and green.” It would be a renewed purpose and energy, opposite the normal decline associated with aging. For me, it’s like being in November, maybe even December, of my life, but with a promise that my remaining time can be meaningful and rewarding.
Have a blessed Sunday
