I'm Not As Old As I Used To Be

I'm not as old as I used to be:

-When I constantly worried about my bills and how I was going to pay them. I just trust in God and I always seem to have more than enough.

-When I fretted about my weight and the graying hair. Now I just look in the mirror and smile.

-When my body looks older on the outside, but the soul on the inside feels younger than ever.

-When I was always judging others, being angry with them, or worrying about what they thought of me. Now I just do my best to love everyone and share my joy with the world. 
Remember God made all of us all both ageless and forever young.

-By choosing love, joy, and unity with God you can always keep growing younger and younger on the inside.

-By sharing that love and joy you can give your youth, energy, and vitality to the world.

-By living from your soul you can stop counting your birthdays, start living for eternity, and always know that you will never again be as old as you used to be.

Life I have found is too short to live any other way.
