A Difficult Job

It’s not easy learning to be an old person. One of our jobs is to make others glad that we are still around. That especially includes our family members or caregivers who help care for our needs, which only increase as we age. Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” I’m sure that we would much rather be “givers” than “receivers.” But for others to have the opportunity to give love and share kindness, there needs to be grateful receivers. Being a grateful receiver might be the most difficult jobof our life. But it can also be a blessed opportunity to let the light and love of Christ shine through us as we graciously give others the chance to put their faith into action.
