When an aging parent or loved one changes and you watch them deteriorate slowly, maybe not even recognizing who you are, can be very devastating. It takes great compassion to care for someone that may not always be kind; not because they don’t want to be kind, but because their brain is changing.
The important thing is: if you are the care giver, you need to take care of yourself. God is always ready to supply our needs, even if it is rest. We can rest in Him.
“…casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” I Peter 5:7 NKJV
