Hey everyone.
Last week I lost my son when he was killed in a motorcycle accident
He would have been 27 in November
I know I tend to butt heads with people on here on pretty much everything but I could really use all of your support right now.

Praying for y'all. So sorry for your loss, he wasn't much younger than me. Not much can be said to comfort in these type of moments. Only the love of others and fall into God's arms as He is a comforts those in grief. Let go in Him and let thet be where your emotions are free to feel and free to heal.

I am so very sad for you. There are no words for this sort of pain. I ask God to shelter you under his wing. Please forgive people for the things that they may say while trying to comfort you. We mean well but we are floundering. I am so sorry.

Oh man, that's terrible! I'm so sorry!
Don't worry about "butting heads" Dude, I am sad that you were even concerned and felt the need to bring it up...! in the end of the day we're all people... as for the holders of grudges, it will not go well for them with Christ...
A good reminder that we often have no idea what's the person on the other side, that we are engaging, currently going through. This forum could really use a bit more kindness...
Asking the Holy Spirit to intercede on your behalf, because I'm really at loss for words. What shall one say to comfort a grieving parent? I'm asking God to give you some peace and relief in your distress I wish I could do more. :cry:

He had just gotten out of the Marines and was going to college on the GI Bill
I've been reading comments from some of his friends and fellow Marines and they all speak very highly of him
He was an amazing young man who touched a lot of people's lives

We lost our son in a bicycle accident over 25 years ago. He was 28. We feel your pain. Let God guide you and your family through the difficult days ahead. You and your family are in our prayers.

That's terrible Dude am so sorry
I cant imagine how overwhelming it is to lose a son. Though God knows as Mary was the same. Do whatever you need to do..sending prayers of comfort

when lives are short it seems God gives them extra opportunities to touch people just by who they are and not always by what they accomplish..He has a greater purpose in this though its so hard to go on, let Him carry you through the valley

"Losing a loved one unexpectedly is a hard one to accept. I lost my only brother
few years ago, I am thankful of God's grace that got me through...Praise God.
We never know how important it is to rely on God's strength in uncertain times."

this is heartbreaking and you have my deepest condolences. I cannot imagine such loss. I have prayed for you, for strength and the peace that only God can give to us in the midst of our worst days and losses and I will continue to pray that you might be comforted.
