All the elderly people I used to work for they trusted me. I did my job’s well and they lived better than us. But they couldn’t do the things they used to. They needed help in a lot of stuff. Like laundry, going to the store, raking their leaves, shoveling their snow, vacuuming at times, dusting at times. It took dedication, respecting them and faithfully helping them. Even when they were sick. It started out with a few and became a pretty good business after school and on the weekends. Plus, I went to summer school every year till high school when they found out I needed eyeglass’s that to me was like gold. I’d say it was a special occasion.
It reads in 2 Timothy 2:20–22 New Living Translation (NLT) In a wealthy home some utensils are made of gold and silver, and some are made of wood and clay. The expensive utensils are used for special occasions, and the cheap ones are for everyday use. If you keep yourself pure, you will be a special utensil for honorable use.
You know children need parents they can depend on be taken care, taught well of and loved. The elderly need someone to do physical work that they can’t, someone they can depend on and someone they can tell of their good memories of their past. Even the elderly teaches you some talents they have. Like trimming rose bushes or washing with a scrub board or crocheting or knitting. The elderly has more wisdom than some give them credit for. They laugh as a child and give good memories that can never be taken from you or them. All the elderly people I have known have loved Jesus and most of them have gone to Heaven with Him.
It reads in 2:24-26 NLT: And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory for all those You have guided in my path through my life. Bless them and keep them safe. Forgive me for the times when I have been hesitant to share the gospel with those who are in disbelief of Your word. Those that seem to thrive on arguing with me. Guide me in letting go and giving it to You. Assist me to be ready to give an answer for the truth of the gospel with patience and in gentleness of spirit as I am led by Your Holy Spirit, and not by my own emotional reaction. I will keep praying from my heart and give You the glory and watch as You do Your work in them and myself. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
