Perspective...

 
 
 
Following the death of my husband, I was given the opportunity to travel to California for a week.  I visited the Pacific ocean and had the privilege of exploring  the Coronado Hotel off San Diego.
This is the view overlooking the swimming pool area and the beach beyond. After leaving the balcony, I found it very interesting to note how things grew larger as I drew nearer to them.
 
Caregiving can be like that.  The only way to get a handle on it is to step back.  Praying can take us up higher to reassess our situation and get a picture from a different angle.  Discussing options with a friend can bring clarity to our minds and peace to our hearts. Ideas on which step to take next will flow and we can become educated to what is available.
 
So many times, we get bogged down and can only see what is directly in front of us and so many times it looks hopeless.
 
Stand on this balcony for a few minutes and ask God to guide you as you seek the best plan for that very dear person you are caring for!
