I haven't posted for a while, and the reasons are multilayered but simple. There is no new negative directions in Judy's condition (indeed the opposite). We have continued to receive an outpouring of Gods grace in a myriad of ways.
Laura and Mikey came, briefly. Sandy came even more briefly and kept Laura and Mikey another 6 days. Sandy bypassed us as if God put his hand down on Brookfield - enough maelstroms there.
Judy is recovering well from the 2nd lung procedure. Stitches are out, no infections, pain receding.
Sandra and Esther are here. the house sparkles and rings with love, laughter, lavender.
but
my wife is dying
She remains steadfast, cheerful, faithful, glorifying. No word of complaint is to be heard. No fear dwells within, yet sin will desecrate me. The selfishness and yet pragmatism of that lay me low.
Rising with spring of Spring
Blooming, serving in the heat of life
no winter in her heart
I just want to hug you!
