The speaker brought this up at the Memorial service for Jesus on the 11th.

To those that may have baked bread.....if you dropped the tray and dented it the loaves wouldnt come out the same anymore.He used this illustration comparing it when  Adam and Eve sinned.They brought sin upon themselves and their offspring.The penalty of sin is death......this is why we grow old and die.Gods original purpose was NOT for mankind to die.

Scientists have wondered why the human race grows old and dies because of the way it renews itself.Again it was inheriting sin from A&E.

God balanced HIS scales of justice with HIS Perfect,Sinless son Jesus.The perfect life Adam threw away was ransomed back by Jesus dying.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

1st Corinth 15:22 New International Version
For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.

well, thinning hair. I spent about $75 on Kerinique products...it's for thinning hair. I am 35, and my hair just doesn't get long. I have learned to except that. A lot of people my age or older have this long, flowing hair...and I will just never have that. It stops now once it gets a little past my shoulders.
I like the Kerinique products, but it's a little pricey. Could't keep up with it. But just loving your hair with a good shampoo and conditioner like Nexxus, or Redkin and Paul Mitchell will basically make you feel better about your hair as you get older....it does for me. It doesn't always look how I want it too, but it feels really really soft and conditioned. Just at least treat yourself every once in a while to a really expensive shampoo, and then you get over it and go back to the old stuff.....hey, the older you are the more money you make anyway.

Growing old does come with its perks -- especially for females following menopause. ;) We experience low bone density leading to osteoporosis, loss of muscle mass leading to poor posture, our skin loses elasticity leading to more wrinkles, and hair starts to turn gray and thin leading to hair loss. But there’s more!  :o Loss of height is due to the shrinkage of the intervertebral cartilage disks, resulting in narrowing space between disks. Drinking, smoking, poor nutrition, and lack of exercise further accelerates the aging process. YAY FOR GROWING OLD!! ;D

     Love your body, take good care of it and adjust to all the changes that
come with the aging process.

I feel pretty good.  Still a youngster---60 is on the horizon this June.
The odd part is when the kids have birthdays.  Doesn't seem possible one can be 38.

People often underestimate the power of genetics.

My hair is my crowning glory so to speak so I sure hope mine doesn't start thinning.  Right now it is below my waist and I have no intentions on cutting it.  It was way below my waist and I had it cut some but I doubt I do anymore.  Oh well it is a pain to deal with but has always been long and I wouldn't feel like myself with it any other way.

I do feel my aches and pains. I try not to let these circumstances bother me as I know it's inevitable. I surround myself with people who make me feel good, but when I come home, my wife is very blunt to tell me I look old.

One of the more obvious thing I have found as I age is putting on weight and unable to lose it and keep it off.

I hate growing old but not for me, it's watching my parents & love one growing older & older every year that scares me the most!
