Back to Indiana (Well, Phoenix actually...)
How we Love the Lord!
Each day we are overwhelmed by one stack of letters / emails after another with prayers and encouragement. It is so humbling and encouraging that God would choose to love us the way He has through all of you. We intend to answer each one but it takes more time than we have right now. Each communication lifts our spirits as we fellowship with you about our Great and Mighty God.
By way of update, Jody has returned from a meeting (in Phoenix) with one of her doctors who is very pleased with her initial progress in the past 30 days. There is still a long way to go - but these test results affirm that we are moving in an excellent direction for Jody. I hasten to add that she feels great (and looks really well too.)
As many of you know, our oncologist did not have any curative hope for Jody - only palliative care; so we are aggressively pursuing what we feel to be the best protocol for Jody in a curative sense. It is aggressive, time consuming, but we are playing to win; the Lord is blessing, and we have *everything* to be thankful for - whatever God's will is for us. We trust in Him above all!
I wish you all could see the amount of glory and worship that is rendered to Christ in your sweet service to us - so many are helping and praying - and from our perspective it is an awesome symphony of God's tender mercies and grace. We are consumed with Him as we walk in these trying days. What an added joy that progress is being made and we received such an encouraging report. For that we bow down in humble worship to God for blessing us yet again.

I have no idea, apart from the providence of the Lord, how I stumbled on this site. My prayers are with you both, my heart aches for you as I seemed to see my love in the same situation and how my soul would cry to the Lord.
I am preaching on Psalm 27 tomorrow and hope to use some of your words to point the people again to a trust in the Lord in the times of great darkness. I shall ask our whole church to lift up prayer for you and your love.
