Give me my?

Don't let aging get you down. It's too hard to get back up!

12 So now give me this hill country of which the LORD spoke on that day, for you heard on that day how the Anakim were there, with great fortified cities. It may be that the LORD will be with me, and I shall drive them out just as the LORD said."

Inspiring hey! At 85yrs of age Caleb is asking for his next challenge. Most people at 55yrs let alone 85 are asking for things also.

• Give me my country club membership


• Give me my beach house


• Give me my recognition


• Give me my superannuation


• Give me my church where I can put my feet up and complain about loud music


• Give me my plastic surgery

You can tell a lot about a person by what they are asking for. Give me my mountain! He knew that he had enough strength, enough wisdom and enough skill to take the next land so that the next generation didn't have to.

What was his secret?

3 times in chapter 14 it says, "Because Caleb wholly followed the Lord". When we commit to "wholly follow God", it doesn't make us worse off, we shouldn't become bitter and hurt, but we need to be energized. Maybe that's the difference between people that serve a church or a man and people who serve God!
