Recently I read that more and more people are reaching the age of 100. In my view, 100 or a bit more years is not a long time. A long life has its place. It is a blessing. I neither criticize those who achieve it, nor would I reject it for myself. Nevertheless, I am more of a proponent of a quality life than a long life. A long, fruitful life would be ideal. By fruitful, I mean service to God. Our works, our prayers are still operating after we are long gone.
"I have been young, and now I am old, and I have not seen the righteous forsaken nor His seed begging bread." (Ps. 37:25) Have faith. Be rewarded. Seek God. "For he who comes to God must believe that He is and is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him." (Heb. 11:6) Do you think 100 years is a long life? Well........ not compared to eternal life.
