Count Your Blessings



                             


Don't forget to Thank God for the gift's in your life....and if you are feeling like you can't see the gift's he has given you...maybe the trials in your life are to bring you closer to HIM...in that lies your gift.

Happy Thanksgiving

  I know only through the love of God I can sustain such agony and I unite my cross to his, always trusting his work and allowing him to work through me. Forever grateful for the gift

 Bring Me Peace
 

 When your daughter dies and you think you are starting to heal -- you are. 
You are healing. 
As much as someone whose broken heart struggles to beat on the outside of their body can heal. 

But when your daughter dies the pain can hit you out of the blue at anytime, for any reason. The fact that you live each day without her is reason enough.

And when your daughter dies it defines you. But you wouldn't want it not to. Sometimes the only thing I want people to know about me is that my daughter died. Nothing more. 

When your daughter dies you live in a dream world. Aware that you are "doing MUCH better", thriving even, but constantly aware that she is not there. 

The good times aren't so much "good" as they are triumphant. Because enjoying yourself, feeling at peace, having fun...those aren't your run-of-the mill emotions you experience easily after your daughter's death. They are hard earned rewards for having HOPE. 

When your daughter dies you don't fear or fight getting older. You embrace it and have the ULTIMATE gift to look forward to the promise God gave us; to be together again for all eternity.--while simultaneously wondering and struggling with living your everyday life on earth and how you will possibly make it.
