Five days for caregivers and the chronically ill
Mr.D.Tunes writes for tired bodies and tired carers: five readings that keep dignity and hope in view.
Written by Derrick Roach (Mr.D.Tunes)
Day 1
Focus: You are valuable on the days you can do very little.
Reflection: What can you not do right now? Can you let that be okay today?
Day 2
Focus: God fed Elijah and let him sleep before He talked.
Reflection: What does your body need from you this week?
Day 3
Focus: Jesus wept; complaint is not unbelief.
Reflection: Write your own short lament, ending with one 'but I trust'.
Day 4
Focus: Heaven measures differently than hospitals and to-do lists.
Reflection: Name a small faithful act from yesterday.
Day 5
Focus: Nothing in your diagnosis can separate you from God's love.
Reflection: Read Romans 8:38-39 aloud, inserting your situation by name.
