How You Can Help the Elderly
Preserve Their Dignity. “Do not sharply rebuke an older man, but be appealing to him as a father, . . . [to] older women as mothers.” 
Analytical-Literal Translation of the New Testament of the Holy Bible.
Listen Carefully. “Be swift about hearing, slow about speaking, slow about wrath.”
Show Empathy. “All of you be like-minded, showing fellow feeling, having brotherly affection, tenderly compassionate, humble in mind, not paying back injury for injury or reviling for reviling.”
Discern When Encouragement Is Needed. “As apples of gold in silver carvings is a word spoken at the right time for it.”
Include Them in Your Activities. “Follow the course of hospitality.”
“By caring for the elderly, we show respect for God’s own standards because his Word states: “You must show consideration for the person of an old man [or old woman].”
Offer Practical Assistance.
