My dear brother Justice, it seems at first lie an impossible barrier coming up. You will see when our Heavenly Father gives us His grace to pass through that wall. I'm thinking and praying that you will be able to release your loved wife into Jesus'care when she has to walk up the heavenly Way with Him just a bit before you. Please lay all your concerns in The Father's lap because He's able. I'm also praying that your fellow believers in your church will gather around and share this time with you, help you rest in the Cross. Many of us have been there and understand how to comfort you. Just rest in Jesus.

A lovely old saint who has been struggling with radio- and chemo-therapy just called this early AM for help later on today; she says she will pray, too. Just rest and leave it up to Him. Be near the Cross today.

Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain
Free to all, a healing stream
Flows from Calvary’s mountain.

Near the cross, a trembling soul,
Love and mercy found me;
There the bright and morning star
Sheds its beams around me.

Near the cross! O Lamb of God,
Bring its scenes before me;
Help me walk from day to day,
With its shadows o’er me.

Near the cross I’ll watch and wait
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I reach the golden strand,
Just beyond the river.

In the cross, in the cross,
Be my glory ever;
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.

(Fanny Crosby)

Belated correction:

. . . it seems at first lie like an impossible barrier coming up.
