THE LOSS OF A LOVED ON

We never get use to death, even though we know death is a part of the life cycle, it is not something we get use to.  However, we do learn how to cope with and deal with the pain that comes along with the loss of a loved one.

 

 

 

 

But how do you maintain after the loss of three in four to five months of each other?  By the grace of God.  No doubt we should lean on His word on a daily basis, but it is during these times that we should do as we have seen in many demonstrations when a persons back is facing someone and they fall back trusting that person will catch.  Well that's how we have to do with God - just stretch out our arms and just fall back.

For me, I have lost my friend and ex-boyfriend of over 20 years in November 2011, another friend of more then 13 years in August 2012, and this month, my ex-husband (married 13 years friends for about 16 years).  Even after our divorce, we remained friends. 

So through it all, I have with confidence, stretched out my arms and fell back because I knew God was to be there to catch me.
