Large banners draped across the
Side of the brick building:
Assisted Living.
Since our populace is aging,
Such facilities seem to be
Popping up everywhere.
I'll admit it.
I need assistance, too, every
Day in every way.
I'm grateful for the friend who
Brought me food when I had
Covid, and for the techy neighbor
Who installed my printer for me.
I'm thankful for the gals who call to
Say, "You forgot to lower your garage
Door," and for the friend who stops by
Just when I need someone to listen.
Even when I'm unaware of my needs,
God provides help in ways I couldn't
Have imagined.
Will I one day live in an assisted living
Facility like a number of my friends and
Family.
Perhaps.
But until then, I'll gladly accept help.
And I'll offer it.
"...your Father knows exactly what you
need even before you ask Him."
Matthew 6:8
