Deuteronomy 18:18-19
I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their own people; I will put my words in the mouth of the prophet, who shall speak to them everything that I command. Anyone who does not heed the words that the prophet shall speak in my name, I myself will hold accountable.

It happens to most all of us sooner or later.  That moment when we walk into a doctor's office or look up into a dentist's face and see someone younger than us.  At that moment, we have to make a decision.  Will we listen to them? Do we trust them?  I have begun to be more aware of the changing of the guard.  The younger ones who have been raised up from among us now having the weight of great responsibility. I naively and arrogantly thought that when I got older that I would be the voice of wisdom for younger ones, but more often than not, I find myself hungry to hear God's word from them - and by the grace of God, it will be good for all of us.
*        *       *        *        *        *       *
I am listening, Lord.  Amen.
