Coming home from Mass this evening, reflecting on recent and not so recent losses ...
I thought I might post and ask if anyone here has any prayer recommendations (devotions, etc.) ...
for when one is dealing with sorrow?
I've incurred some pretty significant personal losses, these past two decades.
Of course, this is not so uncommon, as one ages. The longer we live, the more losses in life we will experience.
... just kind of goes with 'the territory'.
And I am naturally saddened by the recent loss of my husband .... the loss of the life we shared, etc.
It is a big loss, on top of the others.
I tell myself we are not to be attached to this world ... we are to be 'detached' in some kind of healthy spiritual way ...
but I'm just struggling abit on how this is done?
Any suggestions or recommendations?
I know that God is the Answer to all that troubles us in this lifetime ...
