Prayers to you my friend.

There are no words that can fill the emptiness we feel with the loss of the companion for life that God has joined together, our loving spouse. But in Christ, that separation is but a brief moment, and He has promised a reunion that will be beyond joyous.

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss my FRiend. It's just another load your heavy equipment will have to bear for a time.
May God be with you and yours during these sorrowful days and may Emily rest in peace.
Ecc. 3:1-2 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

That is a comforting poem, thanks for sharing.

In descibing Heaven, and it’s wonderfulness that is beyond all human explanation, I heard it said once that;

“as a Christian, the day I die will be the best day I’ve ever lived. But it won’t be the best I will ever live.”

The Heaven John wrote about in the Bible is so full of wonders and mysteries that in our wildest dreams we could not imagine it.

To me would be a most horrible nightmare realized.

I don’t know you, but my heart is out to you. God will see you through this.

Rest in peace Emily.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. What a beautiful picture. You can feel the love. You were the first person to greet me when I joined Freepers almost 10 years ago. I will keep you in my prayers.
