10 - Pressing on in Old Age
Series BREAD FROM BERRIDGE'S BAKERY
If ever there was a subject on which Berridge has something to say, something which is desperately needed today – and will become even more necessary with the rise in life expectancy – the believer in old age is that subject. But before I get into the substance of this chapter, let me address any young person reading this booklet. Yes, this chapter is about the aged believer, the inevitable decline that comes with age. But it also speaks of the possibility of continued, and even enhanced, spiritual life during those years of physical and mental decline. And you will not forget, will you, that Berridge was once young like you? Remember also, that, if the Lord spares you, you will yourself grow old. Moreover, that time will come sooner than you think! Well, then, if you would spend your final days on earth, blazing like autumn leaves for God’s glory, live for Jesus now by the Spirit, and cultivate the spirituality of heart and mind which Berridge displayed, and you will have fewer regrets when your dying days come
