While reading my devotions this morning, I came across the following question.
Did you know that God told the Levites to retire from their regular duties at age 50? (Num. 8:24-25). But He did not want them to stop helping others. He said that they should “minister with their brethren…to attend to needs” (v.26). We cannot take this incident as a complete teaching on retirement, but we can see a godly implication that continuing to serve others after our working days are over is a good idea.
Life takes on new meaning when we invest ourselves in others. Whether you are considering retirement or not, I urge you to serve others thru your local church. If you don’t have a church, I invite you to checks us out at www.gcomchurch.com!
