It is a turning point in one's life from the age of 50 to the age of 100, and it is exactly in the middle of the period when one can be active in life from the age of 20 to 80.
That is why fifty is a time when everything matures, when all passions ripen, gain more light, and bear fruit.
But fifty is also a time when you come down from the peak of your life.
This is because they are gradually moving away from active social activities, social status and honor, and economic comfort.
Moreover, in this situation, anxiety and confusion about the future are coming closer.

"Fifty, Finding the Way in the Bible" looks to the Bible for ways to overcome the challenges of life in one's fifties and to find a positive future.
As Christians, we must find purpose for life after fifty in the Bible.
The Bible is a model for our lives.
Here are the stories of countless people's lives and situations they have to live through.
The story and way of life we ​​must live in the future are also included here.
I'm worried that I'm going down an uncharted path in my fifties, when my social and physical abilities are declining.
This is when we need guidance in life and living.
That guidebook is the Bible.
"Fifty, Finding Your Way in the Bible" guides those of you who are turning fifty to plan your future in our beloved Jesus Christ.

- When everything ripens / ripeness
At the beginning of the fifties, some looks may be luscious and abundant, while others may be the face worn down by the hardships of life.
But that beauty is the external softness that can only be obtained at the age of fifty, and the internal maturity that is unshaken by any storm.
Whether it is very rich or insignificant due to being tossed around by the world's storms, each of its appearances shines with its own unique beauty.
This is the maturity you see in your fifties.

We can see ourselves in Job's overcoming of suffering and maturing.
Even if the suffering is not as severe as Job's, you can overcome the hardships of your youth and discover your current, mature self.
Our current state, just entering our fifties, is the result of the hardships that have come after this.
It is a sight of mature beauty.


From the age of twenty when we become adults to the age of eighty when we live, the middle period of our lives is exactly fifty.
Fifty, the mid-life milestone, is also the time when the most mature personality is revealed.
When God calls His servants, He doesn't just use them right away.
A long time ago
After training them for a long time, He used them and gave them a calling again.
The representative figure of the Bible is Moses.
Moses was saved from death as a child, grew up in the palace of the king of Israel for 40 years, and then spent another 40 years in the wilderness before he was called by God at the age of 80, two-thirds of his life later.
It was only after he was 80 years old, having experienced the hardships of the world and matured, that he received God's calling and led the Israelites out of Egypt.
The most mature age of life is fifty, when our will dies and we long for God's personality.
This is the time to experience the Lord's calling again and to go to the Lord and receive the calling again.

- The greatest beauty, full of grace / temperance
Ecclesiastes tells us that there is a time for each of our lives.
When I set out into the world as a young man, I was full of hope, but at the same time, I felt a great burden from the huge waves of the world.
But now, after a long period of experience, I have entered the middle of my life.
As the saying goes, "Everything in life is a blessing in disguise," when there is joy, there is sorrow, and when there is sorrow, another joy comes.
This is a word that explains this truth well.
Knowing the truth of the cycle of time in this way prevents people from becoming frivolous and acting rashly.
Because your situation can always change.
The reason why you become more mature and gain self-control as you approach your fifties is because this is the time when you come to know the truth.

What makes Christians different from people of the world is that they learn the path of life, learn the truth, and find the direction of their lives from the Bible, the teachings of the Lord.
The reason why you can clearly feel that fifty is different from your youth is because there is a sense of weight and seriousness in your words, actions, and way of life.
Unlike my younger days when I made decisions lightly, I no longer feel the light approach of others, and I sense a noble character.

One of the most beautiful things about turning fifty is moderation.
There is a beauty that you can never have in your youth, and that is what you find in your fifties.
Being self-controlled and capable in any task is something that is only possible at this age.
This age is mature, like a rock standing on solid ground that is not shaken by the wind.
Yet, gentleness and humility are inherent.
This example of moderation begins with knowing God's timing.
Not only the current appearance.
The more self-controlled and dignified appearance that you have as you foresee the future, the more admirable it becomes.
Fifty is a time when maturity and elegance come together to create an air of approachability.
The beautiful charm that is revealed at the age of fifty
