I feel like I live in two worlds…
My life has changed so drastically…
The past is fading…
Memories are there…
but, some how is being pushed aside for the life I am beginning to live now…
It makes you feel guilty at times…
although how it happened was NOT a fault…
but, a happening…
I had no control of the how that life ended and the new one I’m beginning to experience is becoming…
I pray daily for direction…
That I make right decisions…
That I am moving on to be able to cope with my loss…
LOSS is so hard to get through…
You are left to cope with all of the emotions…
I feel God wants me to happy…
As a child of HIS… He wants the right moments to come together perfectly…
WE tend to want “NOW” so much…
but, it is a process…
sometimes slower than we want…
Who am I to question the rushing of feelings…
of emotions…
of wants and desires…
of my mind trying to make sense of all that is happening…
I keep seeing GOOD!…
I keep feeling joy…
I keep smiling…
and laughter comes so easily…
So…
I ask you Dear Lord…
Let my mind rest…
Proceed with this new journey…
Your WILL be done…

As always, I send you love as you face your new situation with such strength and love. Bobby would want you to be happy in this new life that you have landed in and I can feel that you are making your way. I’m very glad that you liked the poster enough to re-use it. There are so many good people out there and close to each of us. Let our strength overcome the bad stuff. With love, Sally. xx
I so believe what this simple poster says…
Me too. xx
You are so strong in your faith. In many ways, my brother’s illness and the loss has brought me closer to God than ever. In other ways, I am weaker than ever. I tend to fall quick and go within my shell instead of instantly asking God for help. This post you wrote, reminds me of what I need to do. You are doing good. I do good as long as I don’t have too much time to sit and think, then all the memories of my losses of family come gushing back. I will make it though, it’s just that some days are still rough to get through. I wish I was strong like you
Beautifully put, Jill. Loss is always hard to fathom and to make the changes necessary after the loss can be daunting. But with God’s help and direction we know victory is ours in the end. Doing it His way is always the best way whether we see it at the moment or not. We are safe in His hands. He has a plan, and it’s the best plan for us if we will yield to it. Keep on trusting the Lord, calling on Him, and He will bring you right out of the shadows into the sunshine of His love and purposes. God bless you in your journey.
thank you for your kind words…
get the book Jesus Calling by Sarah Young…
