One of the F. O. Gs of caregiving is Obligation and Peter tackles that for us this week with some simple concepts that he has learned the hard way. We also take a deep dive into The Doxology which is so, very helpful in itself.

Peter continues his conversation with life-long friend, Nancy Comish as once again we hear how God uses the broken and heals the hearts of caregivers. We look at another hymn that caregivers can meditate upon and make application for our own souls.

Nancy Comish | Wellness in the Middle of Life

Nancy Comish is a life-long friend of Gracie’s and a caregiver of many. She knows intimately the pitfalls of putting others before your own well-being and has paid the price. Peter’s conversation with her goes beyond friendship and our prayer is her example will give inspiration to caregivers, who are most of all, precious children of God.

He allows what He hates to accomplish what He Loves – that’s one of Peter’s themes this week on Hope For The Caregiver, as well as asking the question, “Why do faith healers wear glasses”? We get some insight into the Hymn, “Praise to The Lord” and a reminder that we can help with mobility trouble when we partner with Peter & Gracie through Standing With Hope.

We look at yet another of the facets of Hard Things for caregivers – resentment that comes from our daily grind and considering that, Peter would have us bury “Great is Thy Faithfulness”, deep with our souls.

Happy Independence Weekend! We look at more hard things that caregivers experience daily – praying for mercy that comes from watching the suffering of those we care for and we look at the history of “How Great Thou Art”.

Peter challenges us to a better understanding of what it looks like to be a caregiver – are we digging for gold or getting upset because of the dirt. 30 Hymns every Christian caregiver should know and we hear from Gracie!

Gracie & Peter are home! And even as they celebrate, the battles for the caregivers roll on. Peter is now mostly on his own caring for Gracie, and we know how daunting it can be…But God! Prayer is continually part of the believer’s duty and they are more than grateful for yours.

Peter’s conversation with Cevernce MacLaupglin is a must hear and there is more of it at peterrosenberger.com.

Healthy Caregivers Make Better Caregivers! That’s Peter’s moto and he helps us deep-dive into some of the mechanics of becoming a healthier caregiver, physically, spiritually, and emotionally.

To who’s voice will you listen? Peter asks this of us often and it really s a great question to keep in the forefront of our reasoning, such as it is, as he reminds us, our minds are besmirched in our fallen state.

“Because I know God.” Peter gives us a refresher on handling worry, both as a caregiver and as a child of God.

Peter reminds us of the importance of rest for a caregiver, observations of resentment and the antidote, with a salute to those who never took off the uniform.

This week Peter gives us a Gracie update as well as a lesson on manners and etiquette for the guys and the gals, and most importantly, he points all of us to Christ, the lover of our soul and where all our hope and strength lies.

Peter encourages you to find, develop, and remain in a purposeful, Spirit-led life EVEN as you care for your loved one, knowing that you serve The God Who Sees.

Peter reports on their “Fist 100 Days”, half tongue-in-cheek, his take on hospital codes proposing a new one for believers – Code Grace.

Easter in the airport – as Peter travels home to Montana in preparation for the transition for Gracie from hospital to home, he considers the spiritual diet of some Christians and the need for the modern-day church to stir itself.

Famous Last Words - on this Easter weekend we look to the promise of the cross and all that it has for us. Peter also makes an insightful observation from his and Gracie’s time in the hospital – Hospitals are great equalizers.

For caregivers, rest and sleep are sometimes in scarce availability but they are also essential to doing what we have been called to do, lovingly care for our loved ones. Peter shares his ‘hum that heals’ insights from the whiteboard and asks, “Why trust”?

After ten weeks in Colorado and still counting, Peter has a lot of observations to offer other caregivers. Peter weighs into elevator etiquette, how to speak you’re your experience, as well as a reminder about seeking comfort for your own journey.

What’s you “joy level”? How can we have explosive joy in the face of so many difficulties and sorrows? Again, Peter points us back to Christ and His word. Just keep showing up and look for the ways in which you can be joyful, even in the hardest moments.
