Today I want to thank God for His Holy Spirit. Juergen and I prayed together last night for his mom, and dad and the whole family. His mom continues to grow weaker and weaker. It causes us so much sadness and grief. I can not imagine how hard it is for Juergens dad (Richard). He is an old man. He should be taking naps, and having his wife (who is 9 years younger) fixing him lunch. Instead he has to feed her (that is the simple part). The hard part is watching the amazing wonderful women die. She can know longer sit up in bed. She can hardly speak. Most of the time, she does not even respond to your words. I think it must be very hard to be there, and watch the women you love slip away. I know he is very sad. I also know that it is the Spirit of God that can comfort us when we are over come with grief. The Holy Spirit can cover us all with peace in this very hard time. Jesus said he would not leave us as orphans, but he would send us a comforter. I am very grateful for my comforter.
