Temporarily Out

I am currently not blogging regularly, as you—my dear reader—have likely noticed. The reason for that is my dear wife has become seriously ill. About a weak and a half ago she was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Our temporal world has been turned upside down in many respects.

I am writing this from her hospital room and am spending many hours a day at her side. What that means, of course, is that I am not writing. My time is spent caring for her as much as I possibly can without getting  into the way of doctors and nurses. I will resume regular blogging in three months or so, God willing. My focus right now is on my wife and family.

My dear wife is doing as well as can be expected given her circumstances. We are very thankful to God that the Leukemia was caught and early enough before it could infiltrate her internal organs. We are trusting in God for her healing and know that the doctors and staff working on her are extensions of God's hands healing her body. In all things we are giving thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ.

Thank you for reading.
