I’ll Fly Away?

I’ll Fly Away?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom, for one day I will fly away. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Today the average life expectancy is between seventy-eight and seventy-nine years.

The famous song by Alan Jackson, “I’ll Fly Away,” has a powerful message throughout , especially in the first verse and the refrain.

Some glad morning when this life is over
“I’ll fly away
To a home on God’s celestial shore
I’ll fly away

I’ll fly away, oh, Glory
I’ll fly away
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by
I’ll fly away”

Psalm 90:9-10 makes note of the years of our lives and flying away.

“For all our days pass away under your wrath;
we bring our years to an end like a sigh.
The years of our life are seventy,
or even by reason of strength eighty;
yet their span is but toil and trouble;
they are soon gone, and we fly away.”

Toil and trouble are different for each person. Are you prepared for what happens with age? Be aware that God will walk with you to the end. Live life for God whatever your age.
