AGING
Illustration★★★★When Pablo Casals reached the age of 95, a young interviewer
asked him this question: “Mr. Casals, you are 95-years—old and
the greatest cellist who ever lived. Why do you still practice six
hours a day?” To which Pablo Casals replied, “Because I think I
am making progress.”
“...let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us”
(Heb. 12:1).
The point
At 95, Pablo Casals still practices six hours daily because he believes he is making progress; perseverance never retires.
