I lost my son to evil.

I lost my son some time ago. He's not dead, but he will be. He ran away from home a few days ago, and no one has found him, not even the police. I should have seen this coming, because the night before he ran away he told me and my husband he didn't want to have a future with us. He's 16 years old in case you're wondering. I know who he's run off with, a man who has tormented our family for a long time, but their location is unknown. Please, if you can, pray for me, my husband, and the rest of… Continue

Prayer request!

Hello members,

As you may know, I started this site years ago after my husband early departure to heaven. I'm having shoulder surgery tomorrow and would appreciate your prayers for a speedy recovery. I'll be out of commission for a while and it will be difficult to type with a sling on for 6 weeks, but I promise I'll be back and you're all in my thoughts and heart.

Thank You,

Judy

Loss of a mother

Hi. I lost my mother a year and and a half ago to cancer. She had stage 4 colon cancer and as it got worse she grew lung cancer. I was the one to take care of her a lot. I've seen so much for only being 12 when she left me. I've sat in a hospital room for many hours at night. I've prayed in a hospital more than I have in church My mom was told she only had 18 months to live. But was so strong she lived for 4 years. In those 4 years she did everything with me and my sister. Niagra falls, Disney,… Continue

Words

The words my voice failed to say,

are the words my mind wished to scream.

As you laid on the bed, your eyes fully closed.

Your breathing slowly coming to an end.

The words seemed to have gotten stuck in my throat.

I wanted to beg you to stay,

I wasn't ready for you to leave.

I know you were in a lot of pain,

but a selfish part of me wanted to stay with me.

I didn't want our time together to come to an…

Time

Tick tock goes the clock

I only wish it would stop.

It's ticking, signifies that time hasn't stopped.

Though my world has come crashing down,

the clock still tocks.

I wish I could turn back the time,

and shared one more hug.

As the clock continues to tick forward,

my mind begins to reel backwards.

To the fun times we shared,

to the moments we fought.

As the clock still counts forward,

my mind counts…

Life is full of losses because it is also full of love

Here is an excerpt from a recent post on the Home Page; Grief is a Healthy, Helpful Choice:

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens …. a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance.” (Ecclesiastes 3:1, 4 NIV)

Life is tough. Would you agree with that? Since Adam’s sin, the world was broken, and nothing works perfectly. Your body doesn’t work…
