  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

about two weeks before my wife's passing on we/she was Woking on leading me to knowing Jesus Christ as my king and Savior am still working on accepting my Lord into my life but since her passing there seems to be a mental block of sadness over my loss. Nothing makes sense to me any more why would our God do such a thing.
Anyone else feels this way after losing someone

We all die. Death is our escape from a sin filled world and is actually a gift so that we can eventually no longer be separated from God anymore.

What is your question...what did God do? He allowed you to be the one left behind? Would you rather it was your wife who was feeling this awful feeling of overwhelming grief? Why does it hurt so much? Well, that is measure of how much you loved each other...it wouldn't hurt so much if you didn't like her so much.

It will get better but I am not saying that it goes away. And yes, we know exactly how horrible it feels to lose the person we loved the most .. and it is among the worst feeling even possible...

Real and lasting peace and assurance, too, comes from a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus, the Christ of God ---He is ever present by the Holy Spirit. Knowing God is a general term, and the Lord Jesus says in His word that "...no man cometh to the Father-God but by Me" (see the fullness of this thought in John 14 of your Bible. Read what God has to say to you for blessings in John 1; John 3; John 14. It will make you glad by a personal walk along the path with the Lord in communion.
