Happy Good Friday!

A wonderful Good Friday devotion my favorite, Dr. Charles Stanley, of InTouch Ministries. Blessings to you and Happy Resurrection Day!

The Power of the Cross Mark 15:26-32
Some people jeered at Jesus as He hung on the cross. The Son of God should be able to save Himself, they taunted. These men and women thought that Christ's death proved Him weak. But in fact, the opposite was true. The Lord's power was so great that Jesus died with the world's sin on His shoulders, and He arose three days later. Furthermore, anyone who believes in Him doesn't have to pay his or her own death penalty. God's awesome power sets captives free.
I treasure a letter from a former addict who described God's power in his life. One night, just before drugs stole his consciousness, he heard through an open window a single sentence from a radio preacher: "No matter who you are, God loves you and cares about you." Weeks later, while searching for a program on his own radio, he came across a familiar voice. Intrigued, He listened to that entire In Touch broadcast. What happened, in short, is that he got the message, received Christ, cleaned up his life, and reconciled with his family.
The cross's power is life-changing. God used a phrase heard in a drug-induced haze to prepare a man's heart. Then, once the Lord had his attention, He yanked that fellow out of a deep pit of despair!
Human strength is insufficient to rid ourselves of sin. The truth is that we are all in need of a Savior. Jesus Christ humbled Himself to die in our place, which was not a show of weakness. On the contrary, He made the most powerful sacrifice He could--and He did it for you and me (John 15:13).

Welcome! Thanks for joining!

Welcome to my blog where I want to help you with any questions/issues you have on elder care law. We will cover lots of topics that apply nationwide. For example, nursing homes, skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), are strictly regulated by state and federal law. Elder abuse can occur in a facility or within a family. If you suspect either, I can guide you where to go to help. There are many wonderful agencies which offer assistance and attorneys who can guide you through the legal processes such as estate planning.

And then there is the emotional side of caring for an elder loved one through the transition from an active life to a less active one. We'll cover those topics as well. Loving your parents through the end of their lives can be a sad yet incredible time of fellowship and healing and love that can change both your lives.
