Each month at the nursing home.
An assistant pushes her in a
Wheelchair because her body is
Feeble.
But fortunately, the lady's mind is
Sharp, quite amazing since she
Just turned 105.
Because of her longevity, she's a
Mini celebrity in the facility.
"I've never met someone as old as
You, " I told Audrey as I wrapped my
Arm around her shoulder.
I noticed she had a variety of
Bracelets on both wrists.
"Would you like another one?"
"Yes."
I added a gospel bracelet to her
Collection.
She understood as I shared the
Meaning of the colors.
Audrey said she had trusted in
Jesus at some point in her long life.
Earlier, I had shared an object
Lesson about the changing
Seasons and how we can apply
Them to ourselves.
I gave each resident a copy of
Isaiah 46:4: "Even to your old age and
Gray hairs I am He. I am He who will
Sustain you. I have made you and I will
Carry you. I will sustain you and I will
Rescue you."
Audrey is deep into the winter season
Of her life.
Her strength has ebbed and her body
Has shriveled up.
But selfishly, I hope our ancient sister
Will hang on for another month till our
Next service.
Audrey blesses us just by being there.
For sure, God is hanging on to her.
