Caregiving at Its Best

Alaura was not only her husband's wife, but his caregiver, caring for her husband until the very end. It was not unusual to see them enter church: he in a wheelchair, too weak to walk, and her, pushing him down the hallway as they chatted together and spoke to those they passed. As she told my husband the details of how Leslie had gone home to be with the Lord, we both immediately thought of God's goodness to bring Leslie home on Good Friday. Leslie had been released from his suffering and now resides in the joy of heaven where he is whole and healthy.Wives caring for husbands, husbands caring for wives, adult children caring for aging parents, parents caring for sick children, however we witness caregiving performed, we witness God's compassion, care, comfort, and grace toward humanity.
