I am always thrilled to see residents, who have been diagnosed with some form of memory deficiency, "wake up". Before the service started there were residents who I could not communicate with. As we sang, I watched them remember more and more of the words to the hymns. That seems to wake up other parts of their memory. After the service I could carry on a conversation with these same people. The Bible says in Heb. 4:12, "For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." God is so good!
