Listen, sons, to a father’s discipline, and pay attention so that you may gain understanding, for I am giving you good instruction. Don’t abandon my teaching. When I was a son with my father, tender and precious to my mother, he taught me and said, “Your heart must hold on to my words. Keep my commands and live. Get wisdom, get understanding; don’t forget or turn away from the words from my mouth. Don’t abandon wisdom, and she will watch over you; love her, and she will guard you. Wisdom is supreme #— #so get wisdom. And whatever else you get, get understanding. Cherish her, and she will exalt you; if you embrace her, she will honor you. She will place a garland of favor on your head; she will give you a crown of beauty.”

Caring for aging adults is an honor and a privilege with challenges and opportunities. Ephesians 6:2 - 3 shares this: “Honor your father and mother – the first commandment with a promise – so that it may go well with you...” Some aspects of elder care bring great joy. Others are disorienting. This plan encourages you to lean into the Lord and embrace the time with those you love.
