Devotions for Caregivers: A Month's Supply of Prayer

Portada
Paulist Press, 2006 - 96 pàgines
Often when we think about those who are sick or homebound, we think only of the patient, and rarely realize that there is a caregiver who is equally tied to the home and the restrictive schedule of the illness. This book is comprised of easy-to-read-and-digest devotional prayers, each supplication based on a biblical reading AND containing a brief concluding prayer. A suggested "Stop For A Minute" section after the final brief prayer allows a moment for the reading from Scripture to sink in, and, hopefully, help the exhausted caregiver "refuel" spiritually and emotionally. Not a "grief-resource" book, but, rather, a book to help caregivers care for themselves too, this work makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who spends him/herself in taking care of others. Highlights: --the devotional thoughts are short and to the point, specifically directed to the caregiver --easy to read --a spiritual drink for those short on time --theset "daily devotions" are unique in their specific application to the world of the caregiver +
