My Life Has Changed
I’m writing this from my bed, as I wait for my husband to wake. I have no idea what the day before me will hold, but I’m clinging to my faith to see me through.
Last week, my husband suffered a series of medical episodes that resulted in a hospital stay. You can read more about that below. I can’t bring myself to write about it. My life, our lives, have been forever changed, and there is much we are uncertain about. For now, I’m caring for him, trying to care for myself, and I’m figuring out what my income-producing activity will look like. I will keep writing, as that is a part of me that I can’t shut off. I need to keep writing. But my schedule for it will look a bit different for the next little while. So please bear with me.
I’m sharing a link below to what our son has created to help us navigate this situation, so please help if you can. And please share it far and wide, because we humbly need a lot of help right now. I appreciate you, every reader of my words, and pray I continue to bless you with them. Thank you, and God bless.
Oh no! I'm stunned to read this! You both are such an inspiration to me - your love for God, for each other, and for the sharing of important Biblical truths with others in the very patient, loving way that you do. I will go right now to read the post about what has happened, but will stop before I do to lift you both before the Father.
I was just yesterday reading I Thessalonians 5:16-18 to my dad who is going through some difficulty now as well. It's an easy one to read and say, much more difficult to live. My prayer for you both is that you will, by God's grace and through His Spirit.
The only other words of encouragement that come to mind are those that are the title of Rick's Substack - that no matter what may be, Rick's (and your) eternity is Still Finished!
16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
May the Lord be near.
