Grieving the Loss of A Loved One

As Halloween is fast approaching for many it’s a time for fun but for me, it hasn’t been since 2008. That was the day that I lost my dad. That moment of loss and watching him fade away something became and that is there are forces in the universe that no matter how big and strong I am I can’t stop. That of course is the power of The Lord God Almighty. The reality is that you never truly get over the loss of a loved one. You just learn over time it does become somewhat easier to handle.

There has been this debate for eternity over which is better to lose someone. Some believe that it’s easier if your loved one goes quickly. While there are those it’s better if it is something drawn out so you have time to say your goodbyes. Having gone through one and for the last several years while going through the other I can safely say that I don’t have a clue.

I do know that all people grieve differently and for others to judge others when they are grieving is simply wrong.

God’s Timing Is Always Perfect

Here are the basics about time in our modern world. There are 24 hours in a day. There are 60 minutes in an hour. There are 1440 minutes and 86,400 seconds in a day. There you have it the basic break down of time in our modern world.

Guess what? None of that matters! The only time that matters is God’s and his timing is perfect in every way possible.

However, there does come a responsibility in the time God has given you on his earth. Then this leads us to one question.

How are you spending your time that God gave you on this earth? The thing is we are all guilty of wasting this precious thing called time.

The choice is up to all of us to decide how we want to use that time.
