God Is Awesome

Even in the midst of your darkest hour, God is still good. God gave me so many good years with my son… I don’t have anything to complain about. If you think you’ve having a bad day, give God some praise. And shout out to ‪@jonmcreynolds‬. #GodIsGood #BrandonSmiley

Born here, traveled, and returned many times. There are no endings, just new beginnings. We are all God's children. We all have red blood. Many heartaches for many families and children of all faiths are being murdered. My family has its griefs as all do. I buried my only son and niece. Service period. Kindness and compassion. Poems!!!

Yes Lord Rickey God is so powerful Awesome and he does give answers in our Darkiest of hours ,minutes, and seconds. Trust and believe me Rickey when I say .I was dealing with something that was breaking me down to the point it made me so restless until I had no peace.until he rolled me out bed and and said talk to me child talk to me .and when I did tears over flooded my face the pain in my heart and mind was no more,as I continued to kneel there in silence God put his hands on my shoulders and said worry no more for I am with you as I promise .you knocked I answers, you seeked me your Lord and savior and found me. You ask me your Lord and Savior and I say to you my child it shall be given, so when I say too you the peace that came too me was so overwhelming I kneel more closer to the floor crying so hard thanking him for his mercy and grace so I say yes Rickey God is truly amazing Awesome and powerful. I place no one no one above him.Amen thank you Jesus..may he continue to be your family comfort and strength, he will carry you through..

What a man as of God. This is example of pushing through grief. Everybody can’t do this here. God bless him.

[@beemonique8466]

Only a person who has a true relationship with God will ever understand his ways! My Mom passed in October, I watched her pass on. I still have not broke down but, I have cried. Relying heavily on God- He held me up and showed me how He connected all of the dots. I too had to do all of the arrangements and clean her place out...smh. There's absolutely no way I could have done it all- without God covering me and caring for me. The things God did for ME - all during that time and, while caring for her as she declined was beautifully precious to my soul, now that makes me cry...to know HE loves me that much!!! - He promised all of us that he would never leave us nor forsake us, also that He would be better to us than our mother and father could have ever been- and HE did just that!!! His plan is always better and greater than ours. As the word says- " it was good for me that I was afflicted." The way to heal and forget your own troubles is to go help someone else!! Doesn't matter who or what, it could be giving someone a ride, buying someone groceries, babysitting, helping them clean up....ANYTHING!!!

[@reganaroberts9624]

Yes. I spent 15 years checking on my younger brother because he lived alone in another state. I took a two weeks off and he died. I called him for a week only find out he had been dead for two weeks. Two weeks ago his daughter almost joined him. Through it all God has given me comfort. I talk to God everyday and ask for his guidance, strength and wisdom to get through this grief and anyone else going through a loss of a love one. God loves you.
