Did you think midlife would be those golden years where you reaped the bountiful harvest of all your hard work and faithfulness in years past? If you are experiencing that right now, praise God! If you are not, praise God anyway, but read on.

As I've moved through the seasons of life, I have come to deeply appreciate the blessings of midlife.

Psalm 62 brings these lessons into focus with clarity and grace.
