I think sometimes God’s love in this world is felt through the kindness and loving attention from others around us. I don’t know what I’m doing either.<br /><br /> Hang in there and stay strong for your children. You are who they will look to for strength, guidance and love through this.<br />As for praying, I find that tears work just as well. He knows your pain. I believe that suffering serves a purpose- far greater than what we can fathom here. I’m comforted by words in a song played at my husband’s funeral: “All that is hidden will be made clear. All that is dark now will be revealed...”<br /><br />Regards to you and your family, thanks for following my story. 😘<br />Andrea <br /><br />Andrea Remke, writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423481043738037584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394267539482200525.post-13301505732375949272018-02-03T16:05:58.894-07:002018-02-03T16:05:58.894-07:00thank you for writing this.. its almost like you a...thank you for writing this.. its almost like you are in my head. I lost my husband to cancer 5 months ago. I have 3 kids with the oldest being a senior in high school and our youngest being in 4th grade. I get so lost trying to figure out why this had to happen to him/us. There's so many times I wish I could just talk to him one more time. I got so caught up in taking care of him that I get selfish in thinking that i would rather have him back and still being sick then letting him go. I too also have no idea how to pray and also ask the question why should I pray. What's the point god didn't listen to me when i " prayed " for God to either cure him or at least don't let him suffer. it was good to read this and see and know that someone else feels the same as me and i am not alone in thisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394267539482200525.post-69796681703407031402018-02-03T13:41:35.243-07:002018-02-03T13:41:35.243-07:00I have not walked in your shoes but I have gone th...I have not walked in your shoes but I have gone through life tragedies and turmoil. My heart aches and I feel for you during this tribulation with the pain and grief you are going through. I have a almost 4 year old son and a 10 week old daughter I can only imagine not only your agony but then your heart breaking for your children as you try to figure out to live. You are a strong, courageous woman who will learn day by day how to live again it will take months even years to get there and even years down the road you will have days that you must talk yourself into getting out of bed that day. And that is okay! The reason why people say that time heals all wounds (I hate when people say this) but the reason why they do. Is because day by day we learn to live with the heartache and after so long it’s not that we have moved on it’s because we have adapted to the way the pain feels we cope through it the rest of our lives. You have to remind yourself every day and in time look forward to reuniting with your husband. When it’s your time to go home. Now you have to be as strong as a brick wall for your children. <br />I am a praying person sometimes in my life that was all I had. I will pray for your strength, for god to show you mercy and give you empathy. <br /><br />I have never reached out or done anything like this before. I felt guided to do so sincerely <br />AGAngelinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394267539482200525.post-84682884207379372732018-02-03T13:38:32.918-07:002018-02-03T13:38:32.918-07:00Andrea I am sorry for your great loss.

I hope and pray too, your parish (church) community is there for you and your children. I can't imagine life without being Catholic.

I know it’s sucks, trust me, I know. Please be strong for your babies. Carry on for them because they only rely on and look to you in this time of sadness and confusion. The reward, I hope, will be getting to paradise someday reunited. Regards and hope to you in your despair.

I know it’s weird but could you reach out to me so I can talk to you and you could give me some ideas to help me get through the day. My email isdebbiebradley911@hotmail.com. I too am killing this prayer S**t with my tears.
