Do Not Resist Weakness
Our weakness and old age call people to surround us and support us. By not resisting weakness and by gratefully receiving another’s care we call forth community and provide our caregivers an opportunity to give their own gifts of compassion, care, love, and service. As we are given into their hands, others are blessed and enriched by caring for us. Our weakness bears fruit in their lives.
Blessed are those who have regard for the weak; the Lord delivers them in times of trouble.
- Psalm 41: 1
Reflection Question: When have you experienced your weakness as a galvanizing force for people coming together?
