We all face and respond to the different circumstances surrounding our lives in different ways. Spending time in God's Word can help one to recognize that God desires to spend time and hear from each of His children and is very similar to how a parent loves to spend time and hear from their own children. No matter how good or how bad these daily circumstances are, He is always waiting with open arms to spend time with us. Whether we just need to thank Him for His many blessings or simply ask why things are the way they are, He is always standing at the door waiting. Since the book of Psalms deals with many circumstances of life, hopefully one can begin to understand that God really does care and will listen. In this book, each Psalm or part of the Psalm can be read out loud or quietly, and then there is a simple heartfelt prayer after each one to assist in recognizing how sovereign He is and how dependent we really are on His protection every second of our life.

The story of becoming a doctor, and being a son. Jerald Winakur is a doctor who cares for, and about, the elderly. Dedicated and compassionate, he's a surrogate son to many. And yet, all his years of service helping patients and their families adjust to the challenges of aging did not prepare him for becoming father to his own father, who had become as needy as any child. In Memory Lessons--a tender and provocative book--Dr. Winakur writes about what it's like to be medical counselor to countless patients, while disclosing his personal heartbreak at watching his 86-year-old father descend into disability and dementia, his mother at his side. In both of these roles--highly skilled professional and loving son--he finds he is hard pressed to alter a course that devastates his dad and tears at his family. But he does what he can. A doctor who does his best to listen carefully to each patient in turn, who attempts to confront every problem with, as he says, "a reasonable fund of knowledge, a modicum of common sense, and a large dose of honesty," Dr. Winakur knows that there is much we can do by loving and listening. We all search for answers; we all want to do the right thing for our parents, but few of us know what that right thing is. Faced with caring for a growing sea of elders, Dr. Winakur reflects on his thirty years in the medical profession to consider the very personal and immediate questions asked by families every day: What are we going to do with Dad? Who will care for him--and how? These are urgent questions, and they're faced head-on in Memory Lessons with unflinching honesty, hope, and, above all, love.
