Faith

If he did not believe I can’t go on,


he would not have left me.


If he had any more love to give,


he would have stayed.


If there was anything left for him to do,


he wouldn’t have gone.


Everything has an end in this world,


and he have completed all in his time.


The good, bad or ugly, it was all meant to be...


He have lived a full life, too short for the rest of us but not for the he’s God.


Who am I to waste my short life in tears, sorrow and misery!


Who am I to question as to why? Like I can change a thing about this raw deal of widowhood..


So let it go... with a faith that it must been the perfect time, he was needed somewhere else. 


For more love, kindness and happiness he so deserved. Now he is getting that hundreds times more, somewhere else better then here. And that is what matters the most..


With that faith, I live on my life, one day at a time... that’s the best I can do for the rest of my life....


Hugs, and be the best you can be today!

Without at least a small measure of faith, we could not take that next step. I hope people understand that I am not GOD, and I did not have the power over life and death. I tried so hard to save him, but in a sense, and this is hard to admit, he did complete his work here. He pushed on, as sick and weak as he was, and finished teaching his Bible college class, which he also graduated from himself. He was so knowledgeable about many things. He could almost re-key a lock blindfolded. I want to believe, and he had said as much, that I came into his life when I did to help him make some necessary changes and to fulfill his dreams. My job now, being the one left behind, is to find new purpose, dream new dreams. I choose life.

Thank you so much for sharing this, victoria2014. I will definitely post this where I can see it, to remind me everyday. I am literally on survival mode every single day. I am having a lot of set backs lately, I thought I am doing better but I am not. I am very, very lonely. I know personally that it will take me a very long time to heal and eventually let go...i will have to learn how to pray and have faith again in order to go through this journey.
