The power of relationships is more and more profoud as we get on in years. Connecting with others is the second of our six essentials for finishing well becuase it is where we find purpose and ignite compassion for others. Finding ways to love and serve others guards us from isolation, bitterness, and loneliness.

What does it mean to truly follow the two "greatest commandments" to love God and love others? As we age, we become more comfortable with our familiar relationships, but God calls us to continue finding ways to share Christ's love with a hurting world and pay attention to where the Spirit is leading us, even when it is new territory. It's what Jesus did for us and the example we must follow.

Instead of dwelling on our past, God calls us to focus on what He is doing in our lives right now too. When we do that, we pour our lives into generations following us, just as Psalm 71 says. One of the greatest services we can provide for the generations coming after us is to tell them how much we love them and how special they are to our lives. In this episode, we'll discuss how to do that, even if they act as if they don't want it.

Being available doesn't always mean having a clear space in your calendar. God doesn't really pay attention to your schedule and we must learn to be ready to respond when He calls us to opportunities for ministry. Those of us who have retired must learn that we never retire from God's service and purpose!

Do you ever look back on your life and think, "that didn't turn out like I thought it would?" You would probably identify with no Bible character more than Joseph.
