Gift equal present
It is hard to believe there are 28 days to retirement. A third gift is the gift of being a caring presence.
I remember well the struggle my mom went thru as she combatted Lou Gehrig's disease. At one point distraught seeking some kind of pastoral counsel, I offered it was not doing anything that could help. It was being the presence of Christ for others that makes the difference.
That is the third gift that will be there when I get to retirement, being a caring presence.
