It is amazing how fast almost 7 decades have passed for me and to try to explain it to a younger person is very hard. I keep trying though since I hope to have 20 more years to speak Jesus into the ears he brings around me. @debrakay Well, in the end it's the Holy Spirit Who graciously grants light and understanding of the Scriptures.........we pray to that end with the individuals concerned.......

Isaiah 40 6 The voice said, Cry! And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the beauty of it is as the flower of the field. 7 The grass withers, the flower fades, because the Spirit of the LORD blows on it; surely the people is grass. 8 The grass withers, the flower fades; but the Word of our God shall stand forever. 1 Peter 1 24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of men as the flower of the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls out, 25 but the Word of the Lord endures forever. And this is the Word preached as gospel to you. I do love how 1 Peter 1 ties in with Psalm 40...............
