Hello from Canada. I am new to this chat room thing so find myself hesitating to get involved and yet I know I need to. I find myself pulling into a shell since my husband passed 3 months ago. He was ill for 2 years. It was a very quick progression with lots of pain. It has been interesting how God has been here to care for us since David's passing, but it does not change the grieving that we have been through in the last 2 years. Yes people are around and have "nice words" but they rarely understand the deepness of the pain. Anyways I guess here I can speak my mind without people really knowing who I am. They say time heals things. At this point it feels like the grief is just intensifying rather then getting better. Somehow I have to emotionally get back on my feet so I can take care of the kids. Prayers are appreciated.
 
Thanks for joining us sister!

Father, we ask that you wrap your loving arms around our sister and let the healing begin, weeping may endure for the night but joy comes in the morning. We ask that you give her beauty for ashes that you might be glorified in all that she does, in Christ we pray

amen
 
Well, you're welcome to CC!
Hope you find more courage each day that passes.
 
Hi catmom, I would not have 'met' you if not for a recent post u have in the Prayer request. Just to say welcome, and hope the Lord continues to comfort and cheer u with each day that comes. I think ur a strong woman, but even the strongest who trust in the Lord are hurt... May He really, really be the Father who loves, comforts, and provides as u continue to call on Him day by day.
 
Thank you. I had forgotten about my original post. Like I said, new to this and don't have a good deal of time to follow many of the threads. Yes, God is a good Father. He is my Abba. I could not walk this journey without Him. I think in society we get or give out this vibe that unless you are smiling or laughing that you are somehow not a joyful Christian. I beg to differ. I cry a lot. I hurt deep more after 9 months without my David than I did before. That reality that this is my new way of life is painful. Seeing my kids weep missing their dad does something to me. It is heartbreaking, but dispite the hurt and pain I have Jesus to lean on. Thank you for the prayers. Father hears everyone of them.
