For so many of us, in AND out of the Sandwich Generation, life often shows its fragility. Whether it's a family member, a friend or coworker, or ourselves, illness seems to come up more and more as we grow older. Maybe it's because we know more people than we used to – especially for those of us in the Sandwich Generation who may have many more friends due to helping with our aging parents (and all their friends) while babysitting our grandchildren (even more sweet friends). Or maybe it's the times we are living in? Either way, life so often seems more difficult and full of obstacles. But…
Days end, seasons end, our lives eventually end, but GOD is forever, and the Word of the Lord endures forever! What an encouragement to focus on as we pray for and deal with the various difficult issues that come up for so many of us in AND out of the Sandwich Generation – whether illness, death, disease… I cling to God and to His Word and I'm so grateful for His promises that will NEVER come to an end. Aren't you?
And what a wonderful truth to teach our families – from our elderly parents on down to our youngest grandchildren. When they see we KNOW this, we can give them extra courage and comfort as well! Talk about leaving a sweet spiritual legacy!
For more uplifting thoughts, pictures and devotionals for all of us in the Sandwich Generation…
