I am doing better today. Even though my spirit still feels raw and sore... after losing my son, I feel grateful for God's blessings, and I am hopeful for the future. Every morning it feels like the enemy is throwing his firey darts at me, causing me to feel fear and anxiety in my day. He wants me to feel tearful and weak... and to think I'm beaten. But I am holding on tight to the Lord's hand, and I am totally trusting in Him, like no other time in my life. That feels scary, and yet wonderful ... at the same time. Whenever I start to feel sad, or anxious, I just start praying to the Lord, and He helps me. I am also turning to the scriptures for guidance and spiritual nutrition. It helps me to write down the especially comforting ones in my notebook, that I can refer back to when I need that extra support in my day. Thank you for inquiring, and caring how I am doing Jeni. I appreciate that. :o)

Hugs to you,

~*Misty*~

At 8:39am on May 5, 2008, Jeni Huffman said…: Dear Misty, i can't begin to express my sorrow for your loss. I ahve always said that for a mother to lose a child, is the hardest thing I could ever imagine. I have 6 shildren of my own, 14 through 21. My husband and I are both paramedics and have seen the devistation of so many accidents with teens. It has been had on us because we always relate it to our own children. All of our kids ar driving now, but one. We are in constant prayer for thier safety. The devistation of these accidents seems so hard to understand. Why would God choose to take children who have so much life to give? As I was reading your story, the thought came to mind that your son is with his son now. Maybe God's plan has something to do with that. Maybe God has called them both home to be woth Him because He has something very importat for them to do together. There is so much that goes on in the spirit realm that we don't know about or understand. I do know one thing for sure....and that is that God soes not make mistakes and He loves you and your son and grandson very much. He would not have taken them if it was not crutial to His plan for your life and those around you. It must have been a very improtant reason or He would not have done it. I know this may not be of any comfort toyou now, but I am sure that some day you will know the fullness of the reason and His grace will fall upon you like never before. He wants you to stay close to Hima and testify to those around you that NOTHING will cause you to lose your faith. your testimony though this is what God expects out of you durring this time. I see that you are still looking to God and love Him with all your heart. Don't let the worldlyness of this situation get the best of you...for if you do the evil of this world will get satisfaction. And the life of your son and grandson is worth so much more than that! Keep your eyes on Him who loves you so much and allow Him to fill the hole in your heart. Only He is able to comfort you. Know that I am praying for your strength and courage to get up each day. God tells us that He won't give us more than we can handle...sometimes I hate it when people say that, but I so know the truth is that we can feel it IS soo much. When that happens I always remember that God also says, that He will provide a way THROUGH our pain and suffering and that He will never leave us. Praise God that you have Him in your heart. The power in your realatationship with Him is stronger than anything on earth or the spirit realm for that matter. Dive yourself into more of Him, seek Him though His word, bask in His love and grace for you. That is all He wants you to do right now. I am sure you will grow in a closer walk with Him. You will be a beautiful testimony to those around you. People 's lives will be changed for the better because of you and this experience. Isn't that what I life here is all about? Eternity is everything...not our life here....it can't be about our life here, it's too short. One last thing, Know that God truly understands you pain......He lost His son too.
lots of love and prayers being sent your way!!!
Jeni

How Do You Go On with Life, When Your Adult Child Dies Before You?

I need to be in touch with others, but I don't even know what kind of support or help to ask for. I am just trying to walk forward through each day, holding tight onto the Lord's hand. At times I feel calm and ok, and other times I feel so scared and overwhelmingly sad I can't stand it! I can't conceive at this point how I am going to live the rest of my life in this world without my son being in it. He was my first born, my best friend, I miss him so much!! He would be turning 30 years old in 6… Continue

My Son Jason was killed in a car crash - and I am devastated!!

My oldest son Jason was killed very early Friday morning at 1:05 am, on April 4, 2008. He was 29 years old, and I am devastated! He came down from Portland to stay with me awhile because I have been having such a hard time these past few months, and he was worried about me. He spent Easter with me, just us two, together at home here...he cooked a roast with all the fixings, and it was wonderful! He helped me do things around my home and property that I haven't been able to do myself. It helped m… Continue
