Grief is like an ocean,
it ebbs in and out
some days are calm
others are a wipeout.
Grief is like a stream,
that keeps on flowing
some days it slows down
others it comes rushing.
Grief is like the wind,
that seems not to ease
some days get gusty
others are but a breeze.
Grief is like a storm,
that can be unyielding
some days are tranquil
others are unrelenting.
Grief is a process,
that defies the span of time
for the loss of a love one . . .
lasts a whole lifetime!

My Grief Comfort Verses
The Lord is my rock, and my fortress,
and my deliverer; my God, my strength,
in whom I will trust; my buckler,
and the horn of my salvation,
and my high tower.
” Blessed are they that mourn:
for they shall be comforted.”
“Fear thou not; for I am with thee:
be not dismayed; for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee; yea,
I will help thee; yea, I will
uphold thee with the right hand
of my righteousness.”
“And the peace of God,
which passeth all understanding,
shall keep your hearts and minds
through Christ Jesus.”
“Yea, though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil:
for thou art with me;
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me”
“And God shall wipe away all tears
from their eyes; and there shall
be no more death, neither sorrow,
nor crying, neither shall there be
any more pain: for the former things
are passed away.”
and so many more . . .

Thank you so much Jim . . . today is the day and I am going to work out in the garden and spread some wildflowers. My son and I both had a love for gardening and often I find myself talking to Him while I am working in it. I am so thankful that God has given me the strength to walk this valley with Him hand in hand! ~ Blessings ~
