Good Morning Kelli,
Since the beginning of 2018 I walked in to a situation that don’t same to be going away anytime soon. I decided to follow a plan to help me go through what I am going through now. And I can accross! What you said time doesn’t heal but God does, and the 5 Stages of Growing Through Grief. I read through them and trying to use them to help me up with what I am going through now. I am praying for the Lord to see me through. It good to know people like you exist!!

Mayatu, I am so glad you found this encouraging. Following the stages is not always easy but they are guaranteed to bring you closer to Christ. He WILL see you through! I pray you will continue to run to Him day after day, even when you don’t feel like it. He is worth it! ❤️🎁

I have spent eight years trying to find away to be over this pain of losing my only child . I am blessed to have her five children and now even one great grand daughter. Still have a 14 and 12 year old at home. I know that I will never get over this missing part of my heart but since accepting Christ I am in a whole new light.

Hi Pat. I am SO sorry for your loss. Your life will never be the same! And what a treasure you are to raise her children!!! I am glad you accepted Christ as I have found that most people either run TO or FROM Jesus in deeply painful times!!! I will be honest though…even with Him, there is still much pain, it just means you have Someone to walk through it with you. Hope you will read A Child Loaned blog on this website. It is a poem my parents read at my 22-year-old sister’s funeral years ago. I also hope you will feel free to join my new Facebook page “Kelli’s Grief Page” which I need to link up to this website. I hope you will run to Jesus with your deep pain and make the most of the short time on earth you have left with your family. Please keep in touch! 😘

I’m a young lady who has gone through so much in this world. I have gone through pain of losing both of my parents. I have also encountered losing the place I call home due to fire outbreaks. Am still in grief with this. I have prayed to God and sometimes I tend to think that He isn’t receptive enough. Ooh am still struggling but I thank God i came across this encouraging word. It reminds me that God still loves me. With the five stages I shall overcome. Help me pray about the issue
