If you are related to someone with a disability, know that God will bless your role as a caregiver. You may not know God’s plans, but he sure does!
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada. Tracy is a college girl who has a sibling with a disability. So it’s not unusual that Tracy and her family should attend our Family Retreat – Tracy’s been coming since she was a kid. When she became a teenager, Tracy even served as a volunteer at our Family Retreat. Most recently, though, she was asked to co-lead a sibling support workshop. After the workshop, Tracy said, “I’d never really considered God’s role for me as a sibling until I was asked to do this.” To think that all this time, ever since she was a kid, God was preparing her to minister to other siblings. The Lord tells us in Jeremiah 29, “I know the plans I have for you.” Well, we may not know God’s plans, but he sure does! Friend, if you are related to someone with a disability, know that God will bless your role as a caregiver, a parent, a sister, or brother – whatever. He’s got a plan for you!
