My 6 year old daughter was in a car accident with my mom and my nephew about a month ago. Sense then I have been searching for something to help ease this pain. Ive been trying to understand how to live again. Jesus is going to get us through. He gave me a beautiful daughter and showed me what true, pure, love looks like. So now every morning I wake up and say “thank you lord for my baby” and my heart hurts a little less.

My husband of 53 years, was not only the other half of me; he was my best friend and covenant partner, and we were in full time ministry for over 50 years! When he went "home" after he fought a horrific battle for over 10 years against non-hodgkins lymphoma, I was overwhelmed with grief. I didn't understand why it happened, but I never questioned the Lord and I never doubted His Word. I know the pain you are facing right now - and I also know the tremendous peace, joy, and love you are sharing with us right now. I didn't want to even be here any more; it was as though I lost half of myself. But God! The Lord took me in His arms and covered me with HIs Grace; His Peace; His Joy, and His Love. I still cry when I think of Rick; I miss him every day. And I will never forget him, but the deep places of grief have lifted and I am finally ministering again. It has taken me a year and a half to step out and do what I have been called to do. This is a new season for me and a new chapter in my life. Thank you for sharing this beautiful sermon with us.

I lost my husband at a young age from cancer, he was 35 yo. I am a young widow who has 2 kids, when the expectation didn't come, it was so hurtful, but before he passed away, God asked me even if the healing would not happen, would you still love me and trust me?. It is not only faith that can move the mountain proves stronger, but also even when the mountain doesn't move, our faith can be proved more stronger, to love Him for who He is. Praise God Almighty the author and the finisher of our faith!!! Thank you Jesus for the great love and comfort you have for us. Amen.

My mom now went through cancer. But my father doesn’t bring him to hospital. I still pray for her to recover. And recently i found out my dad might have a mistress for a long time and every month rather using his money for my mom recovery, it goes some where else. I just have Jesus to rely on and that’s the only thing matters. God gave me John 14 and 15. My friend is someone who obey My command and My command is love one another. Holy Spirit will be my comforter. The real Christian is one who went through fire and found pure. The path to heaven is narrow. It’s a path where we should be thankful in pain, forgiveness for someone who doesn’t deserve, pray for them who hurt you, give thanks even when we are in the valley and trust The Lord. All is Good. Because our real life start when we died.

God always gives you beauty for ashes , And turns your mouring into dancing. When my son passed of a heroin over dose. I was able to be with him in the emergency room when the doctor told me he was brain dead. The Lord kept him alive using the medical team that revived him. My parents and I drove 2 hours to be with him. I had to make the decision to turn off the Respirator and let him go. Later the Lord revealed to me as I walked in that emergency room Jesus walked in with me. I was a baby Christian, one year saved, in that moment Jesus spoke to my son and asked him in his coma if he wanted him, my son said yes. Thinking back on all that happened that day, I am so greatful to be with my son when he took his last breath like I was there when he took his first breath. I get to see him again in heaven . Thank you Jesus.

When he was describing HOPE, this is why I believe in eternal security. Because when I didn't, I was depressed and fearful because I thought all the "would ifs" and I would end up saying "I hope so" like the world. When I worked it out and chose that God has me and nothing can snatch me out of His Hand because of His faithfulness and that nothing can separate from His Love, I gained the biblical HOPE. I am no longer a slave to fear. When I wander away - He draws me back to Him. I no longer fear losing my salvation during the time of wandering away from God. I trust that He's got me. I am humbled and feel so blessed that the Holy Spirit pursues me and brings me back to God because of what Jesus did on the cross. This gives me joy and peace in my soul.

When my brother-in-law committed suicide on veteran's day-2021, it was perhaps the worst day in our lives. i can still hear the scream of the pain from my wife when her father phoned and confirmed his passing at the hospital. Never before had we gone so steep in that valley. It is a dark place. But it isn't a lonely place, for He was there with us. And in some ways, we are still there dealing with the repercussions. But there in that valley His presence sustained us in ways hitherto unthinkable. I have known Him all my life it seems. I have known Him as my salvation, my hope, my peace, my strength; as joy, my deliverer, and even when he brought me the gift of conviction. But never had I known Him as comforter. But in that valley I learned why He is the comforter. For He does comfort. And we were and are in need of comfort. One day there'll be no more valley. And i am glad he met us there. But i will not miss that place when it is done away with.

I know he was staring into glory and wasn’t long after that he died WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SMILE I’d ever seen!!😭 Then my mom,hours before she passed she told us that she had such a peace and had no fear whatsoever,she said I’m fixing to go home with Jesus then she said she could hear singing all around her and gave us one last smile and minutes later she died!😭 God was exalted and glorified even in the mist of great loss! I definitely didn’t understand!And you’re right answers won’t help but his presence was everything to me and will be grateful for his goodness! Then 2 weeks ago we were informed of another loss of a VERY dear friend,I was tempted to become overwhelmed by loss but the peace that surpasses all understanding kept me in the comfort of God once again!

When my son passed years ago, I was sitting in silence, I heard the precious sound of the Lords voice, “ Linda, do you trust Me?” After much deep thought I finally said, “yes, Lord no matter what I trust you!” This took time- praise God this prepared the way so many years later to be able to walk through this time in my life. My husband Dan passed away 21/2 years ago. I could call Jesus my Ishi- Husband as He spoke to me once again, “Linda, do you trust Me.” “Yes Lord,” came so quickly, because You have held me, walked with me, cried with me, rejoiced with me. ❤️ May our precious Lord, hold you in the night hours, comfort you when you feel alone in the crowd.

Bill: I am praying for you and your family. My husband finished his course as our Lead pastor and the following Sunday I was in the pulpit. I went before our congregation and I ask them to help me complete this joint assignment, now single assignment with our LORD GOD. It's been 6 yrs and our LORD and Friend has Been with me every step of the way. Be Encouraged,it's your time of intimacy with Our God.🙏❤

Thank you for sharing about what our God did through the taking away of your beloved. He took my beloved home in November of 2021. There are so many facets to it you can't effectively share them with everyone all the time, but I never have been closer to Him than after I surrendered her to Him that His will be done and not mine.

Wow, there is an unusual calm inside yet, remembered as written in a promise that even in trials we will feel a sense of extra calm and contentment. Once you are in it...when it becomes clear it's true, you almost have to ask yourself, "wait, I am calm, shouldn't I be feeling distressed or hopeless ?" This trial comes to be the fulfillment of that promise, that matches up with what the Bible says. Once again one of His promises kept this brings such peace. Just so you know I am thanking Jesus right now for your dedication to the gift of great faith I recognize and trust this ministry of genuine biblical leadings. Thank you for your love. My condolences brother Bill. Sending love and loyalty your way.

January 22 2022 i lost my amazing father to covid, the hardest part was he was in covid hospital for 9 days all alone as i was not allowed to be next to him until he went to be with the Lord. From that day i moved in with my mother to take care of her as she also nearly died due to covid however God answered my prayers and she lived. October 4th 2023 my beautiful mother passed to be with the Lord due to getting covid a 2nd time. What hurt like nothing has hurt me ever before was she too was in Covid hospital all alone for 5 days until her last breath! Yet again i was denied being with her those last 5 days due to strict Civid rules. I love Jesus and God and dont ask why i know i will be with them again in eternity but it hurts to my core thanks for this amazing sermon God Bless you Pastor Bill Johnson
