This was on Mrs. Carnes' (Jael's) Facebook page last week. She shared a post from someone else's page (Matt Herbster) I teared up a few times when I read the end of it, but I was able to copy it down today. Here is most of it:
Three years ago today, Julie won the victory. Her faith became sight! She made me promise to never say she "lost her battle" with cancer. I remember her saying, "Dying, for the Christian, is never losing!" Jesus died and rose again and conquered death so we might live again. I'll see Julie again. I hurt today because I miss her, but I rejoice today because of salvation through Jesus alone that allows Julie to live forever with Him! I rejoice in His goodness.
(paragraph on update on his kids)
God has been good to me. My first wife is with her Lord. My children are doing well. I'm married to an amazing woman who shows me the love of Christ in her non-stop servant's heart. Never doubt God's plans. He always writes the best stories.
Psalm 40:5
Many, O Lord my God, are Your wonderful works
Which you have done;
And Your thoughts toward us
Cannot be recounted to You in order;
If I would declare and speak of them,
They are more than can be numbered.
