Wayne,
My heart is burdened for you tonight. I pray that the Lord would give you a glimpse of Himself in a special way and that you will acknowledge Him in a special way as well. It is sometimes a hopeless and alienating feeling when we watch someone that we love suffering. But despite what our feelings are, He is there, and He cares. We might not know why things are happening the way they are, but He does. We might feel powerless, but he is the sustaining God. I want to encourage you and your wife to learn to love one another even more as you go through this trial. And a trial it is. But the end result is that we become more like our Master and we learn to recognize the 'true' gifts of this life which have been given to us to enjoy and treasure in our hearts. I pray for His calming Spirit to overshadow your household tonight..... John
