Paul was an amazingly influential believer — and yet did you know he got a late start in the Christian life? Most people become Christians as teens and young adults; Paul didn’t get started in formal ministry until he was past 40! Most pastoral search committees would never consider a man in his mid-forties with little to no experience!
In spite of his late start, Paul had a powerful impact. This teaches us two important lessons:
—It’s never too late to start serving God.
—It’s never too late to change the course of your life so you can make a difference.
No matter what your age or circumstance, God can always use you.
Lord, help me to turn away from my excuses for holding back and choose to serve the people You bring my way. Amen.

My girls are 13 months apart, which means that during their early years, I often felt like I had twins. I had to really be on my toes-there was little-or-no catching of mistakes I made on the older child so that they wouldn’t be repeated with the younger one. What I was—or wasn’t—doing to love and raise my children was being done to both of them at the same time.

Most of us have no problem memorizing the lyrics to our favorite songs. Sometimes we know them so well, or they're so deeply ingrained in our minds, that they get stuck in our heads. The moment certain songs come on you'll see people rocking in the car or singing along.
