We Are The People

Genesis 47:8-9 Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How old are you?” ⁹ And Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The days of the years of my pilgrimage are one hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.”

Seems funny that Pharaoh asked Jacob’s age. Perhaps, even though as Jacob said, he didn’t always have good days – he didn’t show the wear and tear of life. Pray that our leaders will be strengthened and renewed daily as Ps. 103 tells us.
