Loss of someone you have been close to is such a difficult thing. :( Praying you feel the comfort of the Lord - and I know you wrote this post awhile ago, but I know from experience that the pain of grief lasts a very long time. And that's ok. Time does heal, but we never ever forget. What a blessing that God created us with memories that sometimes hurt and yet can bring us such joy as well.Clarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14304537325454972400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-47756010240095477092012-07-10T09:50:10.693+10:002012-07-10T09:50:10.693+10:00So sorry for your loss!

Death is so very cruel....if it were not for the comfort that the Lord provides and the blessed hope of the resurrection, it would be devastating. I hope that you will find the sustaining strength of our Lord as you comfort your friends' family and your little girl....praying for you....Friends are such a provison from God for our lives...sounds like you have lost a treasure (for this life) but may the sweetness of the memories you shared bring solace to your heart...until you see her in the next. As your friend wisely said, we are allowed to mourn, it brings healing.Probhitahttp://mycharlottemasonjourneyandotherthoughts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-84642883588464635422012-07-02T00:22:51.541+10:002012-07-02T00:22:51.541+10:00Rosemary and Rebekah,

I think we all understand that we grieve for our loss and for the loss of her children and dear husband.<br /><br />We rejoice in that we will meet her again one day and we are happy for that... but today we are allowed to mourn.<br /><br />Again, I am sorry for your loss. xoxoxoHomeGrownKidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14734650526369790250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-47766096705300310592012-07-01T06:24:12.330+10:002012-07-01T06:24:12.330+10:00Thank you so much dear friends for your warm thoug...Thank you so much dear friends for your warm thoughts and most of all your prayers.

Rebekah, those are such true words, that you know you will see each other again, but you will miss her so much until then. Indeed, grief comes in waves, with new layers to come and sadness, and more emotions, to experience. I am praying for your family and those others that she leaves behind as you all grieve her loss. <br /><br />Thinking of You, <br />Eve<br /><br /><br />P.s. Here is a poem I found that I hope eases your pain a little today.<br /><br /><b>Meet You At The Gate</b><br />© Barbara Bailey<br /><br /><i>A beautiful garden <br />now stands alone,<br />missing the one who nurtured it<br />but now she is gone.<br />Her flowers still bloom, <br />and the sun it still shines,<br />but the rain is like tear drops <br />for the ones left behind.<br />The weeds lay waiting to take <br />the garden's beauty away,<br />but the beautiful memories of its keeper are in our hearts to stay.<br />She loved every flower,<br />even some that were weeds,<br />so much love she would plant <br />with each little seed.<br />But just like her flowers, <br />she was part of God's plan<br />so when it was her time, <br />He reached down his hand.<br />He look through the Garden searching for the best.<br />That's when He found her, <br />it was her time to rest.<br />It was hard for those <br />who loved her, <br />to just let her go.<br />But God had a spot in his garden that needed a gentle soul.<br />So when you start <br />missing your friend, <br />remember if you just wait,<br />when God has a spot in his garden, she'll meet you at the Gate....</i>Eve | Inchworm Chronicleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15194431691132769984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528919161012393527.post-46271280685241130712012-06-30T23:58:34.958+10:002012-06-30T23:58:34.958+10:00Sending you lots of virtual hugs.
