MEDITATION ON GROWING OLD
We can gloss over the matter
of getting old all we want to,
but what do you thin k of what
the Master of men told his
special disciple Peter near the
end: “Verily, verily, I say unto
thee, When thou wast young,
thou girdest Lyself, and
walkedst whither thou would-
est: but when thou shalt be old,
thou shalt stretch forth thy
hands, and another shall gird:
thee, and carry thee whither
thou wouidest not.”
Tradition has ‘it that Jesus
was foretelling Peter’s crucifix-
ion, but this verse doesn’t
necessarily mean that: it’s just
the picture «f ‘anybody — and
most everyboay—getting help-
less in old age (unless he gets
hrmped off by a car!). |
I see peoble like that at Val-
ley Crest. They don’t like get-
ting that way. Why did Jesus
paint such a gloomy picture to
Feter? And to the rest of us?
We overlook the two little
words’: desu added to all this

“Follow me.” Yes, we
have been urged to follow
Christ in youth, into battles,
into hard places, but here is
a call for advanced heroism
and Christian grace, which is
rare indeed among us, to follow
Christ into the utter helpless-
ness and loneliness of old age.
That's what is meant by
“growing old gracefully.” We
hadn’t better wait until we are
in our nineties to begin prac-
ticing this business of following.
These are the meditations of
man who sees old age twice
every week.

BEAUTIFUL '
PENNSYLVANIA HILLS |
NO, THE AUTUMN color is
all gone., But the sky was so
blue that we took a(ride in the
afterncon. “Where is there a
road we haven't been on re-
cently?” asked Ruth.
Right off I said, “The Suscon
road.” So up the Suscon road
we climbed. Had it been a crys-
ness meeting a lively game of Pass- |
|
tal clear day on the lower
levels there would have been a
panoramic view from up there
that would have made us pull
off to see. For from down on
route 92 near our road’s access
you can see the Suscon road
climbing over the far hills like
a gray strip of something. The
valley was full of un-blown
mist and smoke so we didn’t
pull off to look back.
We went on over to Route
115 and from there to the new
Bear Creek dam and reservoir.
That is something worth seeing.
One can walk up a ramp to the
top of the dam and look both
ways. Then drive down around
the lower side of it and out
eventually to Route 115 again,
at Blakeley Corners and home.
On the way I said to Ruth,
“Did anyone ever tell you we
are living in a beautiful section
of Pennsylvania ” She allowed
as how she had heard it some-
where!
All of .this was on Sunday
afternoon and in view of Mon-
day being the opening of deer
hunting season I was wondering
if groups of deer were gathered
in little prayer meetings here
and there to ask divine protec-
tion. Or if maybe they were
meeting in some place to hear
their lelders give them words of
warning about staying out of
sight. I wonder.
