    I lost my husband 11 years ago. No one could understand such pain if you haven't traveled the same road. When he died, i felt a part of me died too. I thought i will not survive such pain but God is good. He helped me through it all. All i could do was to pour out my grief to Him. No one could understand me better than a loving God who created me. I may not understand His plans but I decided to trust Him no matter what. Today, He has healed me and i just want to praise Him. Thank you pastor for a great lecture. May you continue to be an inspiration and encouragement to people. God bless you.

    Dear Pastor of this message & Owner of this Channel. Thank you for sharing. My husband past away 12 wks ago from that Cword plan-demonic that’s going around our 🌎. My husband is not lost, he has been called home 🏰 👑. He was 51 years young, and we started our lives together , when I was 13. I don’t know how to do life without my BFF. I thank Jesus, that I have Jesus. Now, He is my new husband, and I, His diamond 💎 in the rough. Obviously, He is not finished with me yet. He says, we will be doing a “new thing”. Everything is new, for me. Plz pray for me, that my 💔 does not become bitter, that I keep my eyes on Jesus.🙌 as I long to be called home too.

    I lost the love of my life one month ago. We married when I was 19 and she had just turned 18. I lost her a week before our 41st anniversary. You are spot on when it comes to the grief. I have had all these emotions you have described. It is the worse at night in an empty house. Nothing anyone can say will help. Some one to listen is the best.

      Hi Tom,
      U can make new friends. It is good to keep in contact, with old friends. Most married people depend on their spouse for company. It is a mistake, because the spouse may not be there for each other. God bless u and have a merry Christmas :)

      @@kaylakhanhnguyen1116 grief is a process and healing is not overnight. im not sure if youve experienced losing a spouse. If you did then your grief is different from ours dont compare and make us feel bad for grieving and feeling bad for missing our late spouse.
      You wrote, that I am blessed cause there are other women who have not experienced getting married and have not given that opportunity to have happy memories (what? really?!) For a person who is grieving, thinking about others is the last thing on mind...i have to deal with mine so i can take care of others. Dont you realize that? And who told you being single has no opportunity for happy memories? Marriage is not the only purpose or the ultimate purpose (of our existence) that God has for us. Being single is also a blessing if they are called to be one... just like being married...you are not helping. Im sorry but you have to stop making comments like that if you care...you are rubbing salt into the wound.
      I had to delete my own comment here cause i just cant swallow how you commented...so insensitive.

Reach out to family and friends if you need to.Dont forget to take care of yourself and breathe...praying for strength, comfort and peace for you and family. Pls know that you are not alone in this journey.

      I’m so very sorry about your loss. May I ask how you’re doing two years later? I lost my beloved husband very unexpectedly on August 10th of this year. He died from complications of undiagnosed Obstructive Sleep Apnea at the age of 61. We were HS sweethearts and married for 41 years. He was my whole world and I can’t begin to imagine life without him. We were together every free moment. I truly lost my better half. Praying for all of us in this sad club.

      @@pamcornelius9122 I am truly sorry to hear of his passing. I also lost my dad 6 months after my wife. I struggled quite badly for a while and started to crawl into my shell so to speak. The world was a very dark place for me. I saw a quadriplegic veteran who gave a motivational speech about loss and having to pick yourself up and do something with your life to make a difference. That each day when you get up you can choose to be miserable or not. My summation of his talk does not do it justice. I am married again to a wonderful woman who is a nurse and had gone through some unbelievable tragedy of her own. She showed extreme patience with me as I dealt with my grief. It never truly ends but is manageable. The best thing is that she encourages me to talk about Margaret when ever I want to.

He was my everything. I can’t begin to imagine life without him. I’m trying to follow the advice my husband would give me if he was here… “find a good church and be in constant prayer.”

    Those stages don't happen in any particular order and for some they don't happen at all. It COULD happen but in 3 yrs I have never heard a widow say they came in order or at all. So if you are grieving don't think there is something wrong with you if you don't fit the 'mold' because there isn't one. There are countless variables to a death and that causes each person to experience grief in a different way. The ONLY thing you can count on is that God loves and HE is not to 'blame' for any of it at all. I wish ppl would stop blaming God for the mistakes made by man.

      Hi Jeanne,
      God permitted Adam and Eve to eat the apple which caused death. Did u not listen to the pastor about Job? U sound like Job's friends. No offense, u have lousy counsel for those suffering and in grief. I would not want to come to u for encouragement or comfort, sorry to say. God permitted Job to be attacked by Satan. Please study Job and get right with God, if u do not know God. Your comments tell me u think u are more spiritual than other people. We are equal with The Holy Spirit, fyi.

      I was married to my husband for 25 years. He developed colon cancer and died 6years ago. I found widowhood the saddest ,darkest,loneliness time of my life. Our married friends abandoned me and new friends are difficult to find. I experienced an identity crisis as suddenly there was no us. Only me-I felt like half a person for many months. I have discovered that growing old is the process of loosing everything you ever loved and cared about. Life is a collection of memories. In the end life is what you make it to be.
