Casi En Casa – (Spanish)

“I never thought I would live to be this old.”

In this moving narrative, Billy Graham once again takes up the pen not only to share his personal experience of growing older but also teach us some important lessons on how to view our time here on Earth. He says that the Bible makes it clear that God has a specific reason for keeping us here. So what is His purpose for these years, and how can we align our lives with it? How can we not only learn to cope with the fears and struggles and growing limitations we face but actually grow stronger inwardly in the midst of these difficulties?

In what may be his most powerful message of the last decade, Billy Graham speaks to all on this side of Heaven as he covers the importance of four key areas:

Building strong foundations and understanding the gift of years
Facing life’s transitions, including the passing of years, retirement, and when loved ones die
Making wise decisions
Understanding our glorious hope

“In this book I invite you to explore with me not only the realities of life as we grow older but the hope and fulfillment and even joy that can be ours once we learn to look at these years from God’s point of view and discover His strength to sustain us every day. I pray that you and I may learn what it means not only to grow older, but, with God’s help, to grow older with grace.”

“Nunca pense que viviria hasta esta edad”

En esta conmovedora narracion, Billy Graham vuelve a tomar la pluma no solo para compartir su experiencia a esta edad, sino que tambien nos ensea algunas lecciones importantes sobre como ver nuestro paso aqui en la tierra. Dice que la Biblia es clara en que Dios tiene una razon especifica para tenernos aqui. Asi que cual es Su proposito para estos aos, y como podemos alinear nuestras vidas con ese proposito? Como podriamos no solo aprender a lidiar con los temores y dificultades, y con los multiples obstaculos, sino tambien a volvernos mas fuertes por dentro en medio de estas dificultades?

“En este libro te invito a explorar conmigo no solo las realidades de la vida conforme vamos envejeciendo sino tambien la esperanza y satisfaccion, e inclusive el gozo que podemos tener cuando aprendemos a ver estos aos desde la perspectiva de Dios y descubrimos Su fortaleza para sostenernos cada dia. Pido a Dios que tu y yo podamos aprender lo que significa no solo llegar a la ancianidad, sino hacerlo en la gracia de Dios”.
