People with Dementia Still Remember Jesus!

I see this every day at work! Especially on Sundays when the memory care residents are singing hymns and they remember every word. They can say a beautiful prayer, then speak incoherently most of the rest of the time (or barely speak at all). I’ve even seen the lowest cognitive residents sing along! It’s truly beautiful & powerful.

As I was praying over a resident who was passing last week, I told her to not be afraid and that Jesus loves her. Her eyes, which were open and staring out, then became very wide. She was very low-cognitive but I would see her singing along with the hymns and sometimes she would be singing the correct words. ❤️ 

Her mind and body are fully restored now, in the arms of Jesus. 🙏
