You Know The Way

John 14:1-4 New English Translation (NET Bible)

Jesus’ Parting Words to His Disciples

14 “Do not let your hearts be distressed. You believe in God; believe also in me. 2 There are many dwelling places in my Father’s house. Otherwise, I would have told you, because I am going away to make ready a place for you. 3 And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come again and take you to be with me, so that where I am you may be too. 4 And you know the way where I am going.”

Alzheimer's disease is a long journey of loss; and, sadly, those who are taking that journey become unable to articulate it for those of us who aren't.  I watch my mother and wonder how lonely is this terrible path she's walking.  Then I remember Jesus walks beside her and am comforted and pray that she is comforted as well.  Jesus will lead her home and she will know the way.
