My husband died unexpectedly less than a year after our marriage. Our daughter was 3 mos old. I kept thinking I saw him for years. I've never wanted to remarry and came to my peace that I was blessed with our time. I never wanted to remarry again. He was my one and only. My grandson looks so much like him and acts like him. I lost him, but God gave me my daughter, a wonderful son in law, and my grandson. I've learned to be grateful for his blessings, and I know I'll see him again. Greiving is a process without a time limit. Thank you God for my blessings. Some people NEVER experience the love I've experienced.
This movie hits home for me as lost many but I believe you must going on living with memories of each one then move forward because your time it's up here on this earth 🌎 with God help you can learn how how live again as I have . Thank you for loving me .
Thanks for sharing. Every heart knows its own sorrow. Now comes a prayer of complete surrender using caps as emphasis to encourage the disheartened and help the weak to carry on this journey with SWEET JESUS AT THE WHEEL because our contract with survival is brokered with sadness, fragility and anxiety. On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE. YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors, their families and friends. 🥰 YOU SAW them as sinners (missing the mark when aiming to solve a problem then creating another resulting in their weaknesses prevailing causing guilt of wrong doing) because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive justification by grace even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow. If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰 They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh. They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seek to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take. Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movies, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES. LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain. LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned in order for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌 LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰 LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌 If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee. Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life), I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh. O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
I'm a Christian husband and father; if my wife were to die; my only sorrow would be my own selfishness. My wife is a gift from my God; to show me a little bit of how wonderful He Himself IS! I would rejoice that Tammy is with Him and pray, pray, pray to be worthy to be with her again, where she is with Him who loved us enough to die for us; so that we could be with Him forever. thanks be to God!
None of us are worthy to be in heaven friend, even our best works on earth is worthless, look unto the Lamb of God alone, trust in Him alone, in His finished work on the cross, not your own performance, He is worthy to be praised and thanked now and forevermore, for He makes us sinners to be in Christ blameless, spotless and without rebuke in His sight! Eph 2
I remember when my husband got sick with prostate cancer ,i take care of him for six month , the Lord gave me the strength and courage to face the reality that my husband would die ,and even i felt pain and hurt but then i accepted the day that he passed to this life . Now i can face tomorrow knowing God never leave nor forsake me ,He always be with me for the rest of my life and until i go to Him in Paradise in Heaven and be with Jesus my Lord eternally . Thank you .😊
I remember sitting by my mum's bed side till she passed... Nothing hurts more . But knowing she is with Jesus makes it easier..it's months now, she is my best friend and the kindest person I've met I love and miss her everyday, her smile and her ever comforting words. 😥😥
The Lord God placed me with my momma (my grand momma) my grandparents raised me. God fearing people started my journey with The Lord Jesus. I was so sad holding my momma hand when she died. Jesus helped me understand I would see her again. I look forward mostly to seeing my First Love Jesus The Lord when Abba God calls me Home. ♥️🙏🏼♥️
Amen! I feel exactly the same about my mom's passing. I will always feel that deep loss of not getting to be by her side due to covid restrictions. The saddest experience of my life.
The dead are asleep, the resurrection is when Jesus comes, there will be two resurrections, the resurrection of the righteous and the resurrection of the unbelievers
This was a well done movie about love, loss, and grief. I appreciated that a letter was sent to him by his wife to read after a time. It focused on being grateful for the time and memories we have together. To look forward to forward progress and not look back with sadness continually. It helps one to realize that there is so much to live for. There was a story of a Chinese man who lost his love. After the funeral he was walking back home and saw some children playing. He watched with amazement and their interaction brought comfort and joy and good cheer. He started laughing and some passer by people noted that he was laughing. They said, "how can you laugh when your wife just died?" His response was wise, " life presents us with many sweet experiences if we want to see them," and laughing help lift the pain from him and brought back the good memories. Count your blessings name them one by one and see what God has done.
What a wonderful movie, when I lost my true love 37yrs ago, I was lost for quite some time and even made some bad decisions....but God helped me through it all even when I didn't truly didn't know Him, and is always here with me now. I can look back and thank Him for the wonderful love that was mine. How many will never know that kind of earthly love. but know our greatest love is Jesus forever!
My hubby died 12 yrs ago. I wanted to die with him but our dog needed me so i continued on alone with Wilbur. We moved from Colorado to Vermont to start anew. Its been scary...lonely..exciting etc then i got a job as caregiving for 8 yrs. It saved me psychologically. Now im alone without Wilbur who passed at age 17. He was a trooper and a love. Im in a senior community. I can remain by myself or visit the others as desired. Its not for everyone but its fine. I have no needs beyond the essentials. God is with me.
This is a wonderful movie for those experiencing grief. My husband was killed in a road accident just over one year ago. The loss, as shown here, is indescribable. You don't know what to do, how to be, how I can still be breathing even without him. Now I know that everything I feel has been felt the same by others. But where to go from here??
It brings it all back into focus. Your loss is still so new and raw, and there is a road yet to travel. I guess that is what helped me most, is to know that I am not alone. Bad things, tragedies happen not just to other people, but to us too. And we can lean on them when we need to - and that is okay. And we can take tentative steps forward, then a couple back, laugh and cry and allow ourselves to grieve. One day as it said in the movie, the pain will not be so unbearable, you will not be there yet. But one day.
I experienced grief after 51 Years of marriage he was my Life Partner Soulmate. It can take months for your inner Strength to recover, and you do it in your own time. Nine Years on I have met gorgeous guy wonderful to be with. 8 thank God for out Paths have crossed. Now I treasure everyday. Take time you will get better as the Days move on only in your time.
Helping another helped me through the worst part. Im still lonely at age 76 but being by myself as also been therapeutic. Ive done therapy. Ive done widows and widowers group. Just going to the library helped. You will find whats next guaranteed! God bless you. ❤
I remember the loss of my friend. I never wanted to shoot another photo again. He always made the time together so wonderful. Everything we did was prayed about. Our meal’s, our outings, our time together as friends. I will forever miss him. You go through the pain of knowing that that person you love is no longer with us. You grieve in different ways. I have not finished watching this movie but will try and catch bits and pieces when I go to work today. Thank you for making this film. We all grieve differently and it’s coming back and excepting the loss which takes time. God does love the broken hearted. We will one day see our loved ones again!
Nothing lost, Or forgotten, Just put on pause, for a while! Use the best they were, by example, To help mould you to Christ likeness. Grow in Grace, faith, hope, and love! Ouer pain in loss, Ouer grief, should only lead us to love deeper, harder, stronger, because we have experienced love. That can never be lost, the pain will become bareable, but never forgotten, so that we don't forget that love costs everything! And it's worth the price! Shalom. Faith, Hope, and Love!
I remember when my 17 yr old son was killed. God was with me every step of the way. The verse that kept coming to mind as I planned his funeral, spoke to media, and tried to comfort his friends, was; “I can’t do all things through Christ who gives me strength” Phil 4:13. Fifteen years on, I still miss my son, he would have been 33 this Oct. I miss him, but I know who’s he was and where he is, and we will be together with Christ one day. And that brings peace. I have to always put the cross before me and trust God to make it day by day until then. And share the blessed hope of Christ Jesus and Salvation through Him until that day. God bless and comfort Laughing Out Loud those who mourn.
It is extremely rare for a Christian produced movie to move out of the world of superficiality, with poorly written scripts, marginal acting. Yet "Birches' moves into a very good movie that is worthy of having a real and honest plot and quality writing, acting, directing. I think this is worthy of being a prized and enjoyable film to watch and enjoy. Thanks
Such a wonderful and touchy movie. I was deeply touched and affected😢. My beloved husband unfortunately passed away five years ago. It was too sudden, truly unexpected and the unbearable pain is endless. The agony of facing daily living, the emptiness in my heart, the longingness for his caress and warmth embrace, verily devastating!..Life has been meaningless and pointless without my husband by my side..and, for you my bestfriend, mentor, partner & darling husband JEA, I will endlessly and deeply in love with you. 'till we be together again💕
I love the English, their accent, their land and manerisms. One day I would love to visit there. I used to know a lady from England by the name of Melinda Masters.. love that name.. what a beautiful person..a privilege to have known her. If by some miracle she reads this, God bless you Melinda!! Your friend forever Kathy Powell
Sad,but beautiful. There is so much to be grateful for, we truly need to count our blessings, especially when we experience a pure and wholesome relationship. It's like the kind we have with our Heavenly Father. Good memories are to be cherished, the actor definitely thrived on that,even though losing his beloved was painful. Inspiring.
This was really nice. often as adults and parents no ever asks whether we're afraid of anything. We're just supposed to be strong. We're often crumbling under the pressure of our responsibilities. Our prayers don't always get answered and our faith gets shaken. What a wonderful thing to find people or just one person that you can be vulnerable around. All those who come across this, I hope God restores your faith when nothing makes sense. I struggle with my own faith almost daily but I know over and over He has shown me that he's always with me. I hope it gets better 🤍
My grandfather's first wife died at the birth of their first child, a short 2 years after they married. He was devastated. He proposed to her under a birch tree by the river and painted its picture. His last drawing before he died was of this birch tree. It was like he was saying "I love you. I am finally coming home to you. "
You said:'his first wife' but spoke of him as dying still thinking of her yet I assumed there must have been a 2nd wife. Did he not ever get over his first wife.
No he never got over the deep love he had for his first wife Ellie, who died in Apr.1924. Although to have someone to take care of the child he now had, he married Elma in Dec. 1925. Elma's fiance had died in WWI. My mother was born in 1926. Hans and Elma lived a long life together, 1892-1981; both however carried a deeper bond for their first true love. Hans Grohs was an artist. I published a book that illustrates the art Hans created as a grief process as he mourned Ellie. Hans Friedrich Grohs, A Memento Mori for Elisabeth Grohs Treskow. Contact me if you're interested. The birch trees are in it.
Omg! We were married for 40 years and two years ago I lost my darling husband! I could never, ever be married again or love someone. It would be like changing our children for another set. We're all different and you can't assume everyone could be like you. I still love my husband as much as I did 42 years ago. Miss him so much my souls hurts. When I felt that pain for the first time,I knew I have a soul as it wasn't my flesh which hurt. I can't wait to join my husband. 🥀
This is a wonderful movie. Having experienced the death of a spouse in a loving relationship can be devastating. Yet remembering and cherishing the unconditional love that took place with another Human Being is precious enough to have a lifetime of memories. especially knowing that we will see each other on the other side of the veil. I give this movie 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'s
your comment could have been written from my own experience, even though I didn't write it. I wonder how many others watch this movie and have " been there "too.

Now THIS- is a movie worth its weight in emotion and tears and love and time spent with it. Thank you - to the makers and breakers of moulds. The riskers and honest ones. Live love laugh.
I lost my father about two months ago, and when I saw this movie I wished he was here to watch it and show me the parts I had missed. He was a Pastor and now I wish all his children could watch it too. I'm so moved by this movie. Feeling very sad all the more after I watched it. He was my best friend, and my inspiration to write. We had books to complete together, but I don't have the strength to write them alone, including his long awaited biography, which he asked me to write when he had gone. Being a Prophet, he had known and shared about his passing, but I always thought that would happen when we're both older, and when I'm stronger. I feel this movie is incomplete because I so wanted to see how David gets his writing inspiration back. There are a lot of questions I have after watching this movie, it saddens me more that the person who'd help me understand better isn't here anymore. I was so angry with God, but my father left me enough prophecies, messages and voice notes to last me a life time. Some of them include how to deal with loss, and where he told me about his passing. He never got sick, he was injured while playing soccer, and the teammates said that he warned them about the impending injuries. I was strong to handle the funeral and even assured the guy he'd collided with that it wasn't his fault, he was just a mode of transport to help Papa transition on the day he had said he'd be going. It could've been anyone or anyhow. As a writer, I feel that this movie is beautifully written, and tells a deeper message. As someone who has experienced the deepest lost, it hasn't healed me as much as it wounded me afresh. I just shared the link with one of my sisters to watch it, feeling bad that I'm 1000s of miles away from her. I know she'll be affected by it. Maybe she will see what I missed and get closure. I believe in God, and although I sometimes feel He's distant, He is my only hope.
So sorry for your loss. Please, cherish the precious memories you have made with your father. Can you imagine how God feels when He looses one of us? He is a loving and patient God. Shalom 🙏
@@annabethmorris7206 Thank you so much... Each day, the pain eases and I'm grateful for God's healing. The precious memories do make it easier to handle. Thanks a lot for taking the time to read and respond :)
When my mom died I also was very angry with God because she died after the doutor são her and give her medicine and worse still the doutor was sent tô visit her ftom her best friend.

Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰 They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh. They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seek to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take. Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movies, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES. LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain. LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned in order for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌 LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰 LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌 If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee. Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life), I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh. O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
I am sorry to hear about you lost. Hope you go t strengh to do what you think you shoud and be happy. I think your father would be happy seing you happy. I also lost my father, I mess him, but I do my best in life I really wish he could see me now, how I am following his teaching and enjoying life. May the Lord bless you.
My gosh this movie is so beautiful in so many ways. I'm in LOVE, love, looooooove with the writing, the words my goodness.......... Everything concerning it from the message to the acting, the execution. The script is so rich, I'm in awe. This has certainly become my best film. 🙌🙌🙌🙌. Moved me
So many different emotions while watching this movie. I've also grieved for loved ones .& still do. But I believe I'll see them in heaven when my time comes then I fee alittle better. Great movie. Thanks I enjoyed watching it.
I loved how Mike prayed before Meals because Jesus needs this love and unity and humour because we all needed that Amen when they all said it. Honestly God is a very simple friend. I have few scriptures written and when I look at them on the wall God uses my simple efforts of Writting His Promises to uplift me and Talk with me. . Also there are times when His Presence is tangible I know how to experience that is Trust when we come near God by efforts in our hearts He Comes closer to us maybe not in Church but definitely whenever we seek Him for Him with all our heart Jermeiah 29:11-33 and Jeremiah 33 "And You Will seek Me and You Will Find Me When you seek Me with All your heart. ." A Heavy heart is what King David had and he poured it all to God
Wow what an amazing story line. True love never dies indeed. It's amazing how someone can love another so much.... The love that is strong deep rooted like a Birch tree. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful movie. This movie is a must see. It's about love, loss, loneliness, grief, friendship and trusting God for healing. I give it a 9/10...... Great 08.06.2022
I couldn't agree more with your words, ... "trusting God for healing" ... as illustrated by the following prayer of complete surrender using caps as emphasis to communicate that GOD KNOWS the heart and how to HEAL IT INSIDE AND OUT USING HIS SON JESUS CHRIST via the wonder of faith. On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE. YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors, their families and friends. 🥰 YOU SAW them as sinners (missing the mark when aiming to solve a problem then creating another resulting in their weaknesses prevailing causing guilt of wrong doing) because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive justification by grace even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow. If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain.

How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
I was given the privilege to be at my Dad’s bedside when he died, my sister and I issued a DNR as he had a rise and fall. I was not at my Mums as I was in the Philippines. M sister who died Xmas day a couple or so years ago hurt so much, but due to Covid I was unable to go to her funeral . I will never forget how I felt my grandfather in my dreams and life, way after his death. I was 1 and a bit. I find it so difficult to cry at all the funerals I have been too. My sister’s death affected me most.
I've never lost my husband, thank God. Married now for 52 years May 21. But I have lost two children. One from miscarriage many years ago and then my baby daughter last April. The grief almost unbearable but only God. Real movie.
Psalm 46:1 Psalm 46 To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 147:3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. I am very sorry for your loss..... xo
After 42 years of marriage my beloved passed ( heart attack). Six years ago yet seems like yesterday. My soul mate, best friend, love, I ache each day without him. I long to go home and join him again.
In times of difficulty that is when we really need God the most, we dont understand why things happen, but with his words of encouragement we pull through. Loss of a loved one or loss of everything what life has to offer is hard, but there is a truth and that is to appreciate what is given with thanks and what blessing are given. We are all on a journey and that is to like Jesus Christ said love One another as I loved you. because it is love that moves us forward. Peace 🕊️
I have lost two spouses ( both such precious men); I’ve been so blessed. I believe God’s word & know I will see them again.knowing Christ takes the sting out of death. He is with you & gets you through whatever comes. Trust Him! Thank you for the movie.
Bravo. Very good and worth recommending to others. Thank you for a realistic narrative that still contains a strong mesage of living our faith. Blessings.
Beautiful Countryside! A place to Relax and Enjoy ur Surroundings. Reminds me when I go on a Vacation up in the New Mexico Mountains. Peace and Quiet a Time to reflect and Clear my Mind!
I remember losing my fiancee 10 years ago I never moved on without her she died of cancer I'm waiting to reunite with her in Heaven and in the Second-Chance.
Ah..so sad you have been stuck with grief. God wants us to find Him through these times & He wants us to find our identity in His Son who died for us. If we don't know Jesus & what He did on the cross for us..that He died for the sin of the world..yours & mine too! We are all born with a sin nature & the punishment is death eternal..BUT..Jesus paid the price by becoming death for us. He carried all our sin upon Himself that we could have life eternal. He died, He was buried & He rose again. Do you believe He did that for you..can you put your faith in Him to save you now? Can you say thank You Jesus for carrying my sin & shedding Your blood for me. Can you say..I'm sorry for my sin(& that includes even idolizing my fiance over You) ..please forgive me & help me live for You. And if you can then the Bible says WE ARE FORGIVEN & set free. Now..you can know Him & live to tell others about Him. This is the only hope we have.. its in Christ. Now read the Bible to get to know Him..start in John. I hope God reveals His love to you.
I am sorry to hear about you lost. I can imagine how hard that is. And I think she would be happy if she can see you moving on in life, being thankfull for what you have... just a thought. Lord bless you.
Widowed three times. Only God pulled me through this last time. I am now a pot too broken for anyone but the Potter. Thankfully He is calling us all home soon and He will make us anew; not a scar or blemish of grief will remain.
Just as Christ asked Mary not to "touch" Him after He had arisen. A more truthful translation is to "cling" and try to prevent Him from returning to His heavenly kingdom. Remember as well He understood grief. His statement was not condemnation nor was He a "demon to be cast back to hell as in a previous comment. The Lord is with us in love as we grieve, counsels us, comforts us and when we truly understand the beauty and the glory of where are loved ones are, that the walk with the Lord, eat with Him, have true Peace in Him, it is more us than them that is set free. They were set free the moment they breathed their last breath here and stood before His Presence in Heaven.
All of us have sinned and have fallen short before God but He is merciful and gracious to forgive us if we seek Him with our whole heart and ask for His Forgiveness. We can build a truthful relationship with God by keeping His Commandments and learning about Him through His Holy Bible. Pray and ask God for Help in Faith if you may, you will be helped by the Almighty God because He Loves and Cares For You The Most❤️
Amen to that 🙏🙏🙏 I'll keep walking through this darkness til GOD brings me home While I'm here on earth I know GOD is walking along side of me Thank you Lord Tina Thompson
I have had losses...ones that wretched my heart out of my chest, leaving me to feel as if I could never love anyone again....because if I did, God would take them, too. That may be honest, but since I know God and that He is Who He says He is.....I know that loss is, like in this movie, just one of many "irritants" we will face in life. Something God uses to gently (although it doesn't feel gentle) mold us and shape us into who He created us to be. The book of James reminds me that "in this world you 'WILL' have trials and tribulations"....pain, fear, troubles, conflicts....losses. But since God is, indeed, Who He says He is...His still, soft voice assures me that He is here to help me to not simply survive life's difficulties, but to thrive once I'm on the other side of the pain. "God never wastes a tear" someone once told me. I'm glad, because if He didn't care about us, there'd be a lot of wasted water. After seeing this movie, I don't think I'll ever look at pearls in the same way again. I'll remember what pain and irritation had to occur to make the pearl so beautiful and valuable.
This one of the best Christian movies you ever see. Because: unlike most, these people actually acknowledge that their faith is shaken and fading. They actually question it all and doubt it. They're actually scared and no, reading 1 scripture does not suddenly bounce you back. I appreciate the makers/ writer of this movie
Good moral from the movie, really Heart ❤️ Touching.... Really motivated me even though I'm recovering from a big tragedy in my Life.... I'm an Amputee
Interesting story..with a realness of what can indeed happen to anyone on the loss of a spouse…and the Christian perspective is indeed there even inside the quirkiness of the venue where they all met.
This can be applied to all types of loss monetarial or a person. Many times monetario can mean something just as personal such as in my case when I've had a bad go at it and I lost my apartment and I'm homeless right now. This has a good message about staying the strong that you are we all have the same inside feelings and go through your feelings of loss but move on and let the child inside of you play and be the life that you should be, and then man up.
LOSING LOVE ONE'S...IS HARD BE STRONG...ON THE LORD..ASKING FOR GUIDANCE AND 🙏 STRENGTH...GO FORWARD NEVER GIVE UP...HE WILL BE THERE..HAVE FAITH'S...GOD 🙏 BLESS YOU ALL 🙏...
Awesome movie 🎥 , God is good all the time and all the time God is good. His message of the Cross ,the Death ,burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ will always be the saving power of mankind. Just the way God designed it to be . He allows us time to grieve for our love ones , and when he is ready he gives us a new love to be shared with someone else.😊💕🙏
God is good all the time all the time God is good. One of the hardest thing is going through the losing a spouse, i have been there before. Let’s be friends Lisa, can we?
There is really nothing Christian about this film. They all drink like fish and one scene shows a female friend trying to make a pass at the poor man trying to cope with the loss of his wife when she wakes him from a bad dream. "Don't cast your pearls before swine" is a biblical reference not to allow non believers to mock God and His word especially in church, it has no relationship to the claimed explanation in this script and the bible forbids any communion with familiar spirits which this film depicts as something this grieving man was comforted by. Without the Christian tag the theme of this film is not bad in itself but to claim it is Christian and write in scripture taken out of context is what is offensive about this production.
Thank you for the heads up and the honest review... am 40 mins into it, waiting for the Christian part.. should've been obvious by the moment he started seeing visions or they talked about ghosts or the 4 bottles of wine; the drinking party and the heavy darkness throughout each scene...so tiring of people calling Christian, non Christian movies but worldly, secular and even demonic.
There’s nothing unChristian about the movie. It had realness inside the questioning of faith that comes inside deep tragic loss…and the devil can put his 2cents worth in anything anyway..so what if they drank some wine…and met in a house with a story…and all the other stuff…the scenario was real and not religious and pretentious like Pharisitical and judgemental Christians operate . It had a great principle to help deal with grief and I think the filmmakers accomplished their goal. I actually live in a similar house but that doesn’t make me any less Christian because of the history or the fact that my family just lost a family member and the Christian spouse had almost those similarities…who are we to judge? God looks at the heart…and intent… huge difference between being religious and truly KNOWING the Jesus of the scriptures. …the 6 friends were being honest and real with each other at their get together.
@@yam153 I don’t think Isobel’s review was honest at all. It came across as judgemental.. it’s just how the Pharisees would have reviewed seeing Jesus sitting with sinners….it was like a real life story inside of the grief of tragic loss and 6 friends questioning their faith…so what if the venue was an old house? …Christians do live in old homes with past histories….furthermore Jesus turned the water into wine at a wedding…obviously God didn’t have a problem with that miracle….LOL Jesus sitting around with a bunch of people drinking…🤣 so very very sad that people don’t know the Real God of the Scriptures……they only know religious traditions of men… I can see why some movie channels turn off the comments….to avoid spoiler alerts and prejudiced reviews.
@@MsEller316 Instead of drinking alcohol during my grieving process, I jump into worshipping The One who gave His Life for me and overcome the world. I used to be a drunker heading straight to hell, The Lord free me from that and now His Word is my Rock my defense, my sword against Satan trying to tempt me to deal with pain with alcohol and other sinful devices. As a believer, grief is dealt with peace, knowing if the loved one passed away, then is in Heaven with The Lord awaiting for the day of Resurrection to receive a glorified body and reunite with the loved ones. If the loved one did not repent and died without Christ Jesus as Lord and Saviour, then grieving will be even more painful knowing they are in hell; still as True Followers of Christ, we trust God is Just and His Justice is Perfect. His people, His Church, His children, love Him with all our hearts, our minds, our spirits, our bodies and our souls. We love Him above all and everyone; spouses, children, relatives and friends. Nobody on this earth, not my mother, not my dad, not my husband, nobody is above Him.
@@yam153 I understand and appreciate your position re your testimony but not everyone may need to abstain from a glass of wine at times. "If your conscience doesn't condemn you.." I didn't get the impression that they were drowning their sorrows and getting drunk in revelry. ..they were old friends getting together...as many of us still do when we meet...it may not be expedient to some to do so however so we have to consider others. ..but it doesn't make one not be a Christian to do so. You have an awesome testimony....but not everyone is in the same spiritual location when faced with grief even with all the knowledge we have. That's why the script was so real. I also have a testimony but it wasn't about alcohol. I can't make my testimony the standard of how to behave. Touch not taste not etc. Let the Holy Spirit lead and guide according to the Word of God. Truth is Sufficient. Blessings and keep the Faith. On Christ the solid rock we stand...all other ground is sinking sand.❤👍🏼
Death of a loved one gives us a better understanding of that shared love and how life before death has meaning in some way to others, no matter what legacy we leave ... people seek answers to where they came from because it is important to our souls, just as we seek answers to life after death and will we see the departed souls we love again.
Hello, 552 so for your pain what A bless you've aloud your slve to see your blessing that. God aloud u two to share the earth together u were soulmates very view people get that blessing God bless u and the world 🦋❤️🦋
sometimes christians forget that there are people in church who never get married i am 100 years soon and i have never ha a boyfriend and i have cried every day the whole live
It is possible that God was protecting you. Singless is better than abuse. Good marriages seem to be very rare. Christians are part of the bride of Christ! Basilea Schlink calls Jesus our bridegroom. Are you trusting Him as your Savior?
@tyttebarnsen7482 I am so sorry, mam. I understand. Pray for a new life full of pure love. Forgive every harm that was done to you. Forgive God for not answering your prayers. Don't cry. Don't be sad. Be grateful that love exists, even if you did not get it. Look with joy at the young people, the families. Dream of how your new life will be and die in peace. Remember for your new life to be intentional about marriage and select your partner well, not based on romantic appearance, but on character and kindness of course. You must push the issue at the earlies time. I also did not know that. Darling you are loved. Sometimes we can praise God for what we do n o t have. All sorts of suffering. In this world of sin. Be blessed, sister and never sad. Never. Don't allow yourself to cry. Be brave for these last days.
@@tyttebarnsen7482 I am in a second marriage, both have hurt me deeply. I realize I have never known true love here on this earth. Both men are all about themselves. It’s been lonely and painful and both abusive in their own ways. The only man for me is Jesus. I can put myself in your shoes however, and it is equally as hard to not have known a relationship at all. I’m so sorry 😢. So very hard to find someone in this world. Sending you love, from one lonely heart to another. ❤️
My husband died unexpectedly less than a year after our marriage. Our daughter was 3 mos old. I kept thinking I saw him for years. I've never wanted to remarry and came to my peace that I was blessed with our time. I never wanted to remarry again. He was my one and only. My grandson looks so much like him and acts like him. I lost him, but God gave me my daughter, a wonderful son in law, and my grandson. I've learned to be grateful for his blessings, and I know I'll see him again. Greiving is a process without a time limit. Thank you God for my blessings. Some people NEVER experience the love I've experienced.
God Bless you many don't experience love at all.
Indeed, I suffered at the hands of my husband, so much that remarrying terrified me.
So sorry that is sad.
This movie hits home for me as lost many but I believe you must going on living with memories of each one then move forward because your time it's up here on this earth 🌎 with God help you can learn how how live again as I have . Thank you for loving me .
Thanks for sharing. Every heart knows its own sorrow. Now comes a prayer of complete surrender using caps as emphasis to encourage the disheartened and help the weak to carry on this journey with SWEET JESUS AT THE WHEEL because our contract with survival is brokered with sadness, fragility and anxiety.
On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE.
YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors, their families and friends. 🥰
YOU SAW them as sinners (missing the mark when aiming to solve a problem then creating another resulting in their weaknesses prevailing causing guilt of wrong doing) because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive justification by grace even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow.
If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰
They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh.
They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seek to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take.
Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movies, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES.
LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain.
LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned in order for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌
LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰
LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌
If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee.
Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life), I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh.
O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
I'm a Christian husband and father; if my wife were to die; my only sorrow would be my own selfishness. My wife is a gift from my God; to show me a little bit of how wonderful He Himself IS! I would rejoice that Tammy is with Him and pray, pray, pray to be worthy to be with her again, where she is with Him who loved us enough to die for us; so that we could be with Him forever. thanks be to God!
God Bless you. How sweet and selfless of you.
None of us are worthy to be in heaven friend, even our best works on earth is worthless, look unto the Lamb of God alone, trust in Him alone, in His finished work on the cross, not your own performance, He is worthy to be praised and thanked now and forevermore, for He makes us sinners to be in Christ blameless, spotless and without rebuke in His sight! Eph 2
@@glendavis3257 yes amen!!!! A homecoming!! Praise God
I remember when my husband got sick with prostate cancer ,i take care of him for six month , the Lord gave me the strength and courage to face the reality that my husband would die ,and even i felt pain and hurt but then i accepted the day that he passed to this life . Now i can face tomorrow knowing God never leave nor forsake me ,He always be with me for the rest of my life and until i go to Him in Paradise in Heaven and be with Jesus my Lord eternally . Thank you .😊
I remember sitting by my mum's bed side till she passed... Nothing hurts more . But knowing she is with Jesus makes it easier..it's months now, she is my best friend and the kindest person I've met I love and miss her everyday, her smile and her ever comforting words. 😥😥
The Lord God placed me with my momma (my grand momma) my grandparents raised me. God fearing people started my journey with The Lord Jesus. I was so sad holding my momma hand when she died. Jesus helped me understand I would see her again. I look forward mostly to seeing my First Love Jesus The Lord when Abba God calls me Home. ♥️🙏🏼♥️
My mum also passed away recently and it left me broken! She was my life! I miss her terribly
Amen! I feel exactly the same about my mom's passing. I will always feel that deep loss of not getting to be by her side due to covid restrictions. The saddest experience of my life.
The dead are asleep, the resurrection is when Jesus comes, there will be two resurrections, the resurrection of the righteous and the resurrection of the unbelievers
This was a well done movie about love, loss, and grief. I appreciated that a letter was sent to him by his wife to read after a time. It focused on being grateful for the time and memories we have together. To look forward to forward progress and not look back with sadness continually. It helps one to realize that there is so much to live for. There was a story of a Chinese man who lost his love. After the funeral he was walking back home and saw some children playing. He watched with amazement and their interaction brought comfort and joy and good cheer. He started laughing and some passer by people noted that he was laughing. They said, "how can you laugh when your wife just died?" His response was wise, " life presents us with many sweet experiences if we want to see them," and laughing help lift the pain from him and brought back the good memories. Count your blessings name them one by one and see what God has done.
No matter how much it hurt! God will always be watching over you! And you will never
be alone Amen
What a wonderful movie, when I lost my true love 37yrs ago, I was lost for quite some time and even made some bad decisions....but God helped me through it all even when I didn't truly didn't know Him, and is always here with me now. I can look back and thank Him for the wonderful love that was mine. How many will never know that kind of earthly love. but know our greatest love is Jesus forever!
Amen!
My hubby died 12 yrs ago. I wanted to die with him but our dog needed me so i continued on alone with Wilbur. We moved from Colorado to Vermont to start anew. Its been scary...lonely..exciting etc then i got a job as caregiving for 8 yrs. It saved me psychologically. Now im alone without Wilbur who passed at age 17. He was a trooper and a love. Im in a senior community. I can remain by myself or visit the others as desired. Its not for everyone but its fine. I have no needs beyond the essentials. God is with me.
Bless your heart!🙌
So sorry
This is a wonderful movie for those experiencing grief. My husband was killed in a road accident just over one year ago. The loss, as shown here, is indescribable. You don't know what to do, how to be, how I can still be breathing even without him. Now I know that everything I feel has been felt the same by others. But where to go from here??
It brings it all back into focus. Your loss is still so new and raw, and there is a road yet to travel. I guess that is what helped me most, is to know that I am not alone. Bad things, tragedies happen not just to other people, but to us too. And we can lean on them when we need to - and that is okay. And we can take tentative steps forward, then a couple back, laugh and cry and allow ourselves to grieve. One day as it said in the movie, the pain will not be so unbearable, you will not be there yet. But one day.
I experienced grief after 51 Years of marriage he was my Life Partner Soulmate. It can take months for your inner Strength to recover, and you do it in your own time. Nine Years on I have met gorgeous guy wonderful to be with. 8 thank God for out Paths have crossed. Now I treasure everyday. Take time you will get better as the Days move on only in your time.
Helping another helped me through the worst part. Im still lonely at age 76 but being by myself as also been therapeutic. Ive done therapy. Ive done widows and widowers group. Just going to the library helped. You will find whats next guaranteed! God bless you. ❤
I remember the loss of my friend. I never wanted to shoot another photo again. He always made the time together so wonderful. Everything we did was prayed about. Our meal’s, our outings, our time together as friends. I will forever miss him. You go through the pain of knowing that that person you love is no longer with us. You grieve in different ways. I have not finished watching this movie but will try and catch bits and pieces when I go to work today. Thank you for making this film. We all grieve differently and it’s coming back and excepting the loss which takes time. God does love the broken hearted. We will one day see our loved ones again!
God bless yall Friendship
Nothing lost,
Or forgotten,
Just put on pause, for a while!
Use the best they were, by example,
To help mould you to Christ likeness.
Grow in Grace, faith, hope, and love!
Ouer pain in loss, Ouer grief, should only lead us to love deeper, harder, stronger, because we have experienced love.
That can never be lost, the pain will become bareable, but never forgotten, so that we don't forget that love costs everything!
And it's worth the price!
Shalom.
Faith, Hope, and Love!
Qwaqwa
Sorry for your loss. Blessings to you during this season of life! Be Blessed!
AMEN🙏🤝😘
I remember when my 17 yr old son was killed. God was with me every step of the way. The verse that kept coming to mind as I planned his funeral, spoke to media, and tried to comfort his friends, was; “I can’t do all things through Christ who gives me strength” Phil 4:13. Fifteen years on, I still miss my son, he would have been 33 this Oct. I miss him, but I know who’s he was and where he is, and we will be together with Christ one day. And that brings peace. I have to always put the cross before me and trust God to make it day by day until then. And share the blessed hope of Christ Jesus and Salvation through Him until that day. God bless and comfort Laughing Out Loud those who mourn.
One of the most faithful movies i have watched in a long time that has touched my heart and came at an important time in my life.
...Amen, Sisters and Brothers...may we all become useful again...
It is extremely rare for a Christian produced movie to move out of the world of superficiality, with poorly written scripts, marginal acting. Yet "Birches' moves into a very good movie that is worthy of having a real and honest plot and quality writing, acting, directing. I think this is worthy of being a prized and enjoyable film to watch and enjoy. Thanks
Such a wonderful and touchy movie. I was deeply touched and affected😢. My beloved husband unfortunately passed away five years ago. It was too sudden, truly unexpected and the unbearable pain is endless. The agony of facing daily living, the emptiness in my heart, the longingness for his caress and warmth embrace, verily devastating!..Life has been meaningless and pointless without my husband by my side..and, for you my bestfriend, mentor, partner & darling husband JEA, I will endlessly and deeply in love with you. 'till we be together again💕
May God bring comfort, and joy in the little things in life...even a beautiful flower, and knowing that we, your sisters in grief, care.
I love the English, their accent, their land and manerisms. One day I would love to visit there. I used to know a lady from England by the name of Melinda Masters.. love that name.. what a beautiful person..a privilege to have known her. If by some miracle she reads this, God bless you Melinda!! Your friend forever Kathy Powell
May God bless you all who's ever reading this 🙏💖
Sad,but beautiful. There is so much to be grateful for, we truly need to count our blessings, especially when we experience a pure and wholesome relationship. It's like the kind we have with our Heavenly Father. Good memories are to be cherished, the actor definitely thrived on that,even though losing his beloved was painful. Inspiring.
This was really nice. often as adults and parents no ever asks whether we're afraid of anything. We're just supposed to be strong. We're often crumbling under the pressure of our responsibilities. Our prayers don't always get answered and our faith gets shaken.
What a wonderful thing to find people or just one person that you can be vulnerable around.
All those who come across this, I hope God restores your faith when nothing makes sense. I struggle with my own faith almost daily but I know over and over He has shown me that he's always with me.
I hope it gets better 🤍
Yesssss! 😌
Yes it's time to be vulnerable and honest about our wea,necessary and short comings. We'll admitted my sister. -Michael
My grandfather's first wife died at the birth of their first child, a short 2 years after they married. He was devastated. He proposed to her under a birch tree by the river and painted its picture. His last drawing before he died was of this birch tree. It was like he was saying "I love you. I am finally coming home to you. "
You said:'his first wife' but spoke of him as dying still thinking of her yet I assumed there must have been a 2nd wife. Did he not ever get over his first wife.
No he never got over the deep love he had for his first wife Ellie, who died in Apr.1924. Although to have someone to take care of the child he now had, he married Elma in Dec. 1925. Elma's fiance had died in WWI. My mother was born in 1926. Hans and Elma lived a long life together, 1892-1981; both however carried a deeper bond for their first true love. Hans Grohs was an artist. I published a book that illustrates the art Hans created as a grief process as he mourned Ellie. Hans Friedrich Grohs, A Memento Mori for Elisabeth Grohs Treskow. Contact me if you're interested. The birch trees are in it.
oh my goodness... my heart.
@@rosiemckinney1061 you have an amazing history. Im interested
Me too.
Very healing movie. Good for anyone going through grief. You can love again. There should be a sequel.
Omg! We were married for 40 years and two years ago I lost my darling husband!
I could never, ever be married again or love someone.
It would be like changing our children for another set.
We're all different and you can't assume everyone could be like you.
I still love my husband as much as I did 42 years ago. Miss him so much my souls hurts.
When I felt that pain for the first time,I knew I have a soul as it wasn't my flesh which hurt.
I can't wait to join my husband. 🥀
Is it really true that we can find true love again??
This is a wonderful movie. Having experienced the death of a spouse in a loving relationship can be devastating. Yet remembering and cherishing the unconditional love that took place with another Human Being is precious enough to have a lifetime of memories. especially knowing that we will see each other on the other side of the veil. I give this movie 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'s
your comment could have been written from my own experience, even though I didn't write it. I wonder how many others watch this movie and have " been there "too.
Yes Beautiful loving ❤️ inspirational moving movie....the friendship between all the people is extra extraordinary. Very enjoyable...😃
Thanks for sharing. Every heart knows its own sorrow. Now comes a prayer of complete surrender using caps as emphasis to communicate no matter what may come LIFE IS IN THE HANDS OF GOD THROUGH THE PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST since our contract with survival is brokered with sadness, fragility and anxiety.

I lost my father about two months ago, and when I saw this movie I wished he was here to watch it and show me the parts I had missed. He was a Pastor and now I wish all his children could watch it too. I'm so moved by this movie. Feeling very sad all the more after I watched it. He was my best friend, and my inspiration to write. We had books to complete together, but I don't have the strength to write them alone, including his long awaited biography, which he asked me to write when he had gone. Being a Prophet, he had known and shared about his passing, but I always thought that would happen when we're both older, and when I'm stronger. I feel this movie is incomplete because I so wanted to see how David gets his writing inspiration back. There are a lot of questions I have after watching this movie, it saddens me more that the person who'd help me understand better isn't here anymore. I was so angry with God, but my father left me enough prophecies, messages and voice notes to last me a life time. Some of them include how to deal with loss, and where he told me about his passing. He never got sick, he was injured while playing soccer, and the teammates said that he warned them about the impending injuries. I was strong to handle the funeral and even assured the guy he'd collided with that it wasn't his fault, he was just a mode of transport to help Papa transition on the day he had said he'd be going. It could've been anyone or anyhow. As a writer, I feel that this movie is beautifully written, and tells a deeper message. As someone who has experienced the deepest lost, it hasn't healed me as much as it wounded me afresh. I just shared the link with one of my sisters to watch it, feeling bad that I'm 1000s of miles away from her. I know she'll be affected by it. Maybe she will see what I missed and get closure. I believe in God, and although I sometimes feel He's distant, He is my only hope.
So sorry for your loss. Please, cherish the precious memories you have made with your father. Can you imagine how God feels when He looses one of us? He is a loving and patient God. Shalom 🙏
@@annabethmorris7206 Thank you so much... Each day, the pain eases and I'm grateful for God's healing. The precious memories do make it easier to handle. Thanks a lot for taking the time to read and respond :)
When my mom died I also was very angry with God because she died after the doutor são her and give her medicine and worse still the doutor was sent tô visit her ftom her best friend.

YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow.
If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰
They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh.
They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seek to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take.
Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movies, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES.
LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain.
LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned in order for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌
LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰
LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌
If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee.
Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life), I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh.
O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
I am sorry to hear about you lost. Hope you go
t strengh to do what you think you shoud and be happy. I think your father would be happy seing you happy. I also lost my father, I mess him, but I do my best in life I really wish he could see me now, how I am following his teaching and enjoying life. May the Lord bless you.
My gosh this movie is so beautiful in so many ways. I'm in LOVE, love, looooooove with the writing, the words my goodness.......... Everything concerning it from the message to the acting, the execution. The script is so rich, I'm in awe.
This has certainly become my best film. 🙌🙌🙌🙌. Moved me
So many different emotions while watching this movie. I've also grieved for loved ones .& still do. But I believe I'll see them in heaven when my time comes then I fee alittle better. Great movie. Thanks I enjoyed watching it.
I loved how Mike prayed before Meals because Jesus needs this love and unity and humour because we all needed that Amen when they all said it. Honestly God is a very simple friend. I have few scriptures written and when I look at them on the wall God uses my simple efforts of Writting His Promises to uplift me and Talk with me. . Also there are times when His Presence is tangible I know how to experience that is Trust when we come near God by efforts in our hearts He Comes closer to us maybe not in Church but definitely whenever we seek Him for Him with all our heart Jermeiah 29:11-33 and Jeremiah 33 "And You Will seek Me and You Will Find Me When you seek Me with All your heart. ." A Heavy heart is what King David had and he poured it all to God
Wow what an amazing story line. True love never dies indeed. It's amazing how someone can love another so much.... The love that is strong deep rooted like a Birch tree. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful movie. This movie is a must see. It's about love, loss, loneliness, grief, friendship and trusting God for healing. I give it a 9/10...... Great 08.06.2022
Thanks for the terrific review, lerato. Glad you found the film worthwhile.
I couldn't agree more with your words, ... "trusting God for healing" ... as illustrated by the following prayer of complete surrender using caps as emphasis to communicate that GOD KNOWS the heart and how to HEAL IT INSIDE AND OUT USING HIS SON JESUS CHRIST via the wonder of faith.
On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE.
YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors, their families and friends. 🥰
YOU SAW them as sinners (missing the mark when aiming to solve a problem then creating another resulting in their weaknesses prevailing causing guilt of wrong doing) because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive justification by grace even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation.

I was given the privilege to be at my Dad’s bedside when he died, my sister and I issued a DNR as he had a rise and fall. I was not at my Mums as I was in the Philippines. M sister who died Xmas day a couple or so years ago hurt so much, but due to Covid I was unable to go to her funeral . I will never forget how I felt my grandfather in my dreams and life, way after his death. I was 1 and a bit. I find it so difficult to cry at all the funerals I have been too. My sister’s death affected me most.
What a deep Movie. I hope people that have watched it have understood the depth of it.
I've never lost my husband, thank God. Married now for 52 years May 21. But I have lost two children. One from miscarriage many years ago and then my baby daughter last April. The grief almost unbearable but only God. Real movie.
May God comfort yall
Sorry for your tremendous losses. Prayers.
So sorry I lost my identical twin sister. Its beyond hard I need a Holy to blessing
Psalm 46:1
Psalm 46
To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth.
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Psalm 147:3
He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
I am very sorry for your loss..... xo
So sorry Charlotte
Very thought provoking. Loss is the hardest thing in life that we bear 🥰
After 42 years of marriage my beloved passed ( heart attack). Six years ago yet seems like yesterday. My soul mate, best friend, love, I ache each day without him. I long to go home and join him again.
A very touching and emotional movie. Filled with love and grief , good friends and wonderful memories.
Touching film, conveys the grief of loss in a raw, gentle way. Good to see 'Tucker Jenkins' playing Mike!
In times of difficulty that is when we really need God the most, we dont understand why things happen, but with his words of encouragement we pull through. Loss of a loved one or loss of everything what life has to offer is hard, but there is a truth and that is to appreciate what is given with thanks and what blessing are given. We are all on a journey and that is to like Jesus Christ said love One another as I loved you. because it is love that moves us forward. Peace 🕊️
I have lost two spouses ( both such precious men); I’ve been so blessed. I believe God’s word & know I will see them again.knowing Christ takes the sting out of death. He is with you & gets you through whatever comes. Trust Him! Thank you for the movie.
May I ask how long after your first husband did you marry again?
My daughter has lost her husband..her first & only love.
The pearl is the symbol of overcoming for precisely how they are made...they are the only precious gem made in this way...all the others are stones
Bravo. Very good and worth recommending to others. Thank you for a realistic narrative that still contains a strong mesage of living our faith. Blessings.
Beautiful Countryside! A place to Relax and Enjoy ur Surroundings. Reminds me when I go on a Vacation up in the New Mexico Mountains. Peace and Quiet a Time to reflect and Clear my Mind!
I remember losing my fiancee 10 years ago
I never moved on without her she died of cancer
I'm waiting to reunite with her in Heaven and in the Second-Chance.
Ah..so sad you have been stuck with grief.
God wants us to find Him through these times & He wants us to find our identity in His Son who died for us.
If we don't know Jesus & what He did on the cross for us..that He died for the sin of the world..yours & mine too! We are all born with a sin nature & the punishment is death eternal..BUT..Jesus paid the price by becoming death for us. He carried all our sin upon Himself that we could have life eternal. He died, He was buried & He rose again. Do you believe He did that for you..can you put your faith in Him to save you now? Can you say thank You Jesus for carrying my sin & shedding Your blood for me. Can you say..I'm sorry for my sin(& that includes even idolizing my fiance over You) ..please forgive me & help me live for You.
And if you can then the Bible says WE ARE FORGIVEN & set free. Now..you can know Him & live to tell others about Him. This is the only hope we have.. its in Christ.
Now read the Bible to get to know Him..start in John.
I hope God reveals His love to you.
I am sorry to hear about you lost. I can imagine how hard that is.
And I think she would be happy if she can see you moving on in life, being thankfull for what you have... just a thought. Lord bless you.
Widowed three times. Only God pulled me through this last time. I am now a pot too broken for anyone but the Potter. Thankfully He is calling us all home soon and He will make us anew; not a scar or blemish of grief will remain.
The most unselfish thing you can do is set your loved one free. Lovely film.
How do you set them free?
They are demons you cast them back to the abyss in the name of Jesus
Just as Christ asked Mary not to "touch" Him after He had arisen. A more truthful translation is to "cling" and try to prevent Him from returning to His heavenly kingdom. Remember as well He understood grief. His statement was not condemnation nor was He a "demon to be cast back to hell as in a previous comment. The Lord is with us in love as we grieve, counsels us, comforts us and when we truly understand the beauty and the glory of where are loved ones are, that the walk with the Lord, eat with Him, have true Peace in Him, it is more us than them that is set free. They were set free the moment they breathed their last breath here and stood before His Presence in Heaven.
Don’t be sad your loved one is gone. Be happy he/she was here.
@@WoW-Wonderful-U wow.. well said
For the most part a very touching lovely movie! God bless all!
All of us have sinned and have fallen short before God but He is merciful and gracious to forgive us if we seek Him with our whole heart and ask for His Forgiveness. We can build a truthful relationship with God by keeping His Commandments and learning about Him through His Holy Bible. Pray and ask God for Help in Faith if you may, you will be helped by the Almighty God because He Loves and Cares For You The Most❤️
I truly loved this movie…thank you for posting it & allowing us to watch it for Free. It was worth losing a few hours of sleep last night. 😊
So inspiring and heart stirring kind of movie..I am truly blessed..Thank you and God bless
"dragging a chunk of me that I needed to go living...!"
This movie teaches a lot.
Amen to that 🙏🙏🙏
I'll keep walking through this darkness til GOD brings me home
While I'm here on earth I know GOD is walking along side of me
Thank you Lord
Tina Thompson
I endured this movie. I didnt get it at all but I am happy that it touched some of you.
I love the story of Pearl..... it ministered to my soul.
Thank you and God bless.
So pleased that you enjoyed the film. Thank you for the blessing.
I have had losses...ones that wretched my heart out of my chest, leaving me to feel as if I could never love anyone again....because if I did, God would take them, too. That may be honest, but since I know God and that He is Who He says He is.....I know that loss is, like in this movie, just one of many "irritants" we will face in life. Something God uses to gently (although it doesn't feel gentle) mold us and shape us into who He created us to be. The book of James reminds me that "in this world you 'WILL' have trials and tribulations"....pain, fear, troubles, conflicts....losses. But since God is, indeed, Who He says He is...His still, soft voice assures me that He is here to help me to not simply survive life's difficulties, but to thrive once I'm on the other side of the pain. "God never wastes a tear" someone once told me. I'm glad, because if He didn't care about us, there'd be a lot of wasted water. After seeing this movie, I don't think I'll ever look at pearls in the same way again. I'll remember what pain and irritation had to occur to make the pearl so beautiful and valuable.
Wow Laura, thank you for your thoughtful commentary on "Birches."
Absolutely beautiful and heart drenching...I loved this movie
Heart wrenching... as in, it wrenches (not drenched, lol) our heart out... 🤣
Watching just the beginning i already knew this movie is going to break my heart.💔😭
This one of the best Christian movies you ever see.
Because: unlike most, these people actually acknowledge that their faith is shaken and fading. They actually question it all and doubt it. They're actually scared and no, reading 1 scripture does not suddenly bounce you back.
I appreciate the makers/ writer of this movie
Thanks Wendy. Glad this movie moved you closer to God.
Good movie, very inspiring to watch. Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤
Excellent! Simply Excellent, nothing else needs to be, should be, or can be said. Simply excellent!
I believe,I am thankful for the content of this,uplifting movie. Thank You.
A beautiful movie,thanks for sharing
Excellent, allows the Lord to speak to the heart.
This movie just blessed me deeply. Thank you!😇
Good moral from the movie, really Heart ❤️ Touching.... Really motivated me even though I'm recovering from a big tragedy in my Life.... I'm an Amputee
Wishing you strength may you adapt with challenges ahead of you and conqour
Great movie! We need more like this one. Thank you!❤
Very good quality download. Sad film, but worth watching.
Beautiful film in every way - thank you
Thanks Ian. Glad you liked it.
Difficult topics nicely discussed and filmed. Well done
Honest & sensitive. Thank you.
You're welcome Diane-thanks for the positive review.
absolutely beautiful and comforting, REAL
I TRULY LOVE THIS MOVIE.. ❤️ 🕊⚘️
Interesting story..with a realness of what can indeed happen to anyone on the loss of a spouse…and the Christian perspective is indeed there even inside the quirkiness of the venue where they all met.
Thanks for the thoughtful comments, Eleanor.
Wow what a wonderful movie I really like the story beautiful 💕
Excellent reflection. A masterpiece.
This can be applied to all types of loss monetarial or a person. Many times monetario can mean something just as personal such as in my case when I've had a bad go at it and I lost my apartment and I'm homeless right now. This has a good message about staying the strong that you are we all have the same inside feelings and go through your feelings of loss but move on and let the child inside of you play and be the life that you should be, and then man up.
The acting was superb .
So touching and well acted and produced...
Thanks for the endorsement, Doc.
LOSING LOVE ONE'S...IS HARD BE STRONG...ON THE LORD..ASKING FOR GUIDANCE AND 🙏 STRENGTH...GO FORWARD NEVER GIVE UP...HE WILL BE THERE..HAVE FAITH'S...GOD 🙏 BLESS YOU ALL 🙏...
I gotta stop watching these great stories that touch my heart to tears.
Okay, you can stop right after you watch "Russ Taff: I Still Believe." :-)
This story is indeed lovely 🌹
Healing is God's gift yo us to go to all we have been designed to be, like The pearl! great analogy!
WOW, no words. Thank you
Beautiful Movie , I agree with Wendy Ntswane's comment down below , I couldn't have said it better myself ! ! !
It is hard to fully accept the loss of a spouse and having to go through life alone is unbearable.
Thanks for sharing it! I always enjoy watching Great Movies though. 👍👌👏
An of course, I'm a subscriber!
Thanks Again Though.
Beautiful ❤🙏
Awesome movie 🎥 , God is good all the time and all the time God is good. His message of the Cross ,the Death ,burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ will always be the saving power of mankind. Just the way God designed it to be . He allows us time to grieve for our love ones , and when he is ready he gives us a new love to be shared with someone else.😊💕🙏
'Preciate your leaving these helpful remarks, Lisa.
God is good all the time all the time God is good. One of the hardest thing is going through the losing a spouse, i have been there before. Let’s be friends Lisa, can we?
Davvero bello !
Dio vi Benedica 🙏🏻❤
A heartfelt story.
Totally enjoyed this. Liked the comment about Jesus' mother!
What you havent got, or never had, you dont miss. Maybe its better so, the heartache must be unbearable........❤
There is really nothing Christian about this film.
They all drink like fish and one scene shows a female friend trying to make a pass at the poor man trying to cope with the loss of his wife when she wakes him from a bad dream.
"Don't cast your pearls before swine" is a biblical reference not to allow non believers to mock God and His word especially in church, it has no relationship to the claimed explanation in this script and the bible forbids any communion with familiar spirits which this film depicts as something this grieving man was comforted by.
Without the Christian tag the theme of this film is not bad in itself but to claim it is Christian and write in scripture taken out of context is what is offensive about this production.
Thank you for the heads up and the honest review... am 40 mins into it, waiting for the Christian part.. should've been obvious by the moment he started seeing visions or they talked about ghosts or the 4 bottles of wine; the drinking party and the heavy darkness throughout each scene...so tiring of people calling Christian, non Christian movies but worldly, secular and even demonic.
There’s nothing unChristian about the movie. It had realness inside the questioning of faith that comes inside deep tragic loss…and the devil can put his 2cents worth in anything anyway..so what if they drank some wine…and met in a house with a story…and all the other stuff…the scenario was real and not religious and pretentious like Pharisitical and judgemental Christians operate . It had a great principle to help deal with grief and I think the filmmakers accomplished their goal. I actually live in a similar house but that doesn’t make me any less Christian because of the history or the fact that my family just lost a family member and the Christian spouse had almost those similarities…who are we to judge? God looks at the heart…and intent… huge difference between being religious and truly KNOWING the Jesus of the scriptures. …the 6 friends were being honest and real with each other at their get together.
@@yam153 I don’t think Isobel’s review was honest at all. It came across as judgemental.. it’s just how the Pharisees would have reviewed seeing Jesus sitting with sinners….it was like a real life story inside of the grief of tragic loss and 6 friends questioning their faith…so what if the venue was an old house? …Christians do live in old homes with past histories….furthermore Jesus turned the water into wine at a wedding…obviously God didn’t have a problem with that miracle….LOL Jesus sitting around with a bunch of people drinking…🤣 so very very sad that people don’t know the Real God of the Scriptures……they only know religious traditions of men… I can see why some movie channels turn off the comments….to avoid spoiler alerts and prejudiced reviews.
@@MsEller316 Instead of drinking alcohol during my grieving process, I jump into worshipping The One who gave His Life for me and overcome the world. I used to be a drunker heading straight to hell, The Lord free me from that and now His Word is my Rock my defense, my sword against Satan trying to tempt me to deal with pain with alcohol and other sinful devices. As a believer, grief is dealt with peace, knowing if the loved one passed away, then is in Heaven with The Lord awaiting for the day of Resurrection to receive a glorified body and reunite with the loved ones. If the loved one did not repent and died without Christ Jesus as Lord and Saviour, then grieving will be even more painful knowing they are in hell; still as True Followers of Christ, we trust God is Just and His Justice is Perfect. His people, His Church, His children, love Him with all our hearts, our minds, our spirits, our bodies and our souls. We love Him above all and everyone; spouses, children, relatives and friends. Nobody on this earth, not my mother, not my dad, not my husband, nobody is above Him.
@@yam153 I understand and appreciate your position re your testimony but not everyone may need to abstain from a glass of wine at times. "If your conscience doesn't condemn you.." I didn't get the impression that they were drowning their sorrows and getting drunk in revelry. ..they were old friends getting together...as many of us still do when we meet...it may not be expedient to some to do so however so we have to consider others. ..but it doesn't make one not be a Christian to do so. You have an awesome testimony....but not everyone is in the same spiritual location when faced with grief even with all the knowledge we have. That's why the script was so real. I also have a testimony but it wasn't about alcohol. I can't make my testimony the standard of how to behave. Touch not taste not etc. Let the Holy Spirit lead and guide according to the Word of God. Truth is Sufficient. Blessings and keep the Faith. On Christ the solid rock we stand...all other ground is sinking sand.❤👍🏼
Wonderful movie to watch, so real, so sweet, and full of love.
Outstanding
Wonderful movie .
Excellent movie!
That was beautiful!
Thank you, Beverly.
Death of a loved one gives us a better understanding of that shared love and how life before death has meaning in some way to others, no matter what legacy we leave ... people seek answers to where they came from because it is important to our souls, just as we seek answers to life after death and will we see the departed souls we love again.
Thanks Deborah. "Birches" really stirs up a lot of important questions, doesn't it? And it actually offers up answers to some of 'em too.
Hello, 552 so for your pain what A bless you've aloud your slve to see your blessing that. God aloud u two to share the earth together u were soulmates very view people get that blessing God bless u and the world 🦋❤️🦋
sometimes christians forget that there are people in church who never get married i am 100 years soon and i have never ha a boyfriend and i have cried every day the whole live
It is possible that God was protecting you. Singless is better than abuse. Good marriages seem to be very rare. Christians are part of the bride of Christ! Basilea Schlink calls Jesus our bridegroom. Are you trusting Him as your Savior?

I am so sorry, mam. I understand.
Pray for a new life full of pure love. Forgive every harm that was done to you. Forgive God for not answering your prayers.
Don't cry. Don't be sad. Be grateful that love exists, even if you did not get it. Look with joy at the young people, the families. Dream of how your new life will be and die in peace. Remember for your new life to be intentional about marriage and select your partner well, not based on romantic appearance, but on character and kindness of course. You must push the issue at the earlies time. I also did not know that.
Darling you are loved. Sometimes we can praise God for what we do n o t have.
All sorts of suffering. In this world of sin.
Be blessed, sister and never sad. Never. Don't allow yourself to cry. Be brave for these last days.
@@tyttebarnsen7482 I am in a second marriage, both have hurt me deeply. I realize I have never known true love here on this earth. Both men are all about themselves. It’s been lonely and painful and both abusive in their own ways. The only man for me is Jesus. I can put myself in your shoes however, and it is equally as hard to not have known a relationship at all. I’m so sorry 😢. So very hard to find someone in this world. Sending you love, from one lonely heart to another. ❤️
Sad but beautiful ..
Woooow! this was soo deep and intense!
