    Caring For The Elderly

    Contributed by Leo Samuel D G on Sep 15, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 18,471 views

    Caring for elders is not easy. But taking care of old age parents is a sweet experience because no other human has loved us like they did. God wants us to love and take care of them irrespective of whether or not they ‘deserve’ it.

A neighbour, who saw their deeds, asked them, “Will he take care of you when you are old?” Many of us, who are young adults, would have come across such a question in our life. But have we ...read more
