Kari R. - husband's health

"There is nothing I can do to relieve his pain. He remains adamant that we follow the dosages as prescribed. Consequently, his pain level remains steady. But he will not give in to the temptation toward addiction. No foothold for the devil.

He cannot keep anything down, including his pain killers. His pain is almost unbearable to witness. Imagine having to endure it. So we sit in the valley together. He writhes in pain. I silently sit close by. Ministry of presence.

And then Dogtown sends us scripture. Reminding us of how we are marvelously made in His image. How in the depths of our despair, God is with us. My ministry is to my husband, in sickness and in health."
