The Death of a Spouse Changes your Perspective of What's Important

[@haroldcalderon9030]

I lost my wife yesterday and I feel so sad and empty. After 35 years with this awesome woman it’s very hard to start all over again. God bless you Carmen!😘😘

[@sarahcrain8083]

God bless you.

[@herbertkimmel5577]

Hi Harold, I read your post --I lost my wife too (19 months ago). Your would think about now I'd be over it. But for me, I agree with you that it is difficult to start over again - but mostly I've discovered that she cannot be replaced--so I guess it's going to be while to find someone to replace her. At least, that's how I feel. My sympathy and compassion for you. I'm sorry for your loss.

[@kithinjihildahkarimi426]

It is well... I too lost my husband in 2017 and I find it difficult to move on...

[@mrfender03294]

How are you Herold? How are your wounds? My girlfriend is dying of bone and brain cancer, and I cant stop thinking about the horrors of my life and suicide.

[@Roadglide131]

You are probably tired of hearing the I’m sorry already. I lost my wife of 25 years suddenly almost 6 months ago. This will probably be the hardest time of your life. I get through by praying to Jesus Christ my lord and savior often. I would also encourage you to read the book Imagine Heaven. It has helped somewhat. I will keep you in my prayers. I love you!

I lost my wife a week ago after she had almost completely recovered from a major transplant surgery. She fought so hard and bravely, and then in an instant she was gone from what was likely a blood clot going to her heart. I feel so lost and confused, and trying to pick up the pieces is very daunting. She was 41. The worst part of this grief is me worrying about whether or not she is okay.. That final moment I was with her before she passed was so traumatic, giving her emergency aid and being unable to save her no matter how hard I tried made me feel so powerless. I want to know that she wasn't scared, and I want to know that she is alright now. It's something I need to process, and I hope with time I will feel at peace with her passing. Sharing this on a KZbin comment somehow helps me process these feelings a little, even if nobody reads it. I loved her so much.

[@sunshine9122]

I'm so sorry for the loss of your wife, Mite. I suffered from blood clots in my lungs after surgery. At the time, I didn't realize how serious it was, but my husband later confessed to me that he was terrified that I was going to die. He said if I hadn't survived, he would have just curled up into the fetal position and cried until he died. Fast forward three years later, I found myself wanting to curl up into the fetal position and dying myself because my husband died suddenly, unexpectedly, and tragically at age 38. He was the love of my life and my soul mate. No one will ever love, care for, protect, cherish, appreciate, or adore me the way he did. Thank you for reading.❤

[@IMiteBeWrong]

@@sunshine9122 Thanks for the reply, I can absolutely relate the feeling you have. It's is 9 months to the day since I lost my wife. They say time heals all wounds, which I have found to be only partially accurate thus far; you do adapt and get used to the new routine of living your life solo, however, the gaping hole is still there. Time has dulled the pain, but I have days where I find myself missing her more than ever. I'm 37, and while my future is bright in many ways, similar to you I feel I will never find someone who could ever love, care for, and adore me the way she did.

My husband committed suicide on 6/5. Everything is bullshit except the love the good times. Our feet on each others feet at night. He hung himself in the backyard tree. No one wants to talk about it. I don’t want to talk to anyone about it I feel like a child throwing a tantrum in the floor on the inside knowing it will change nothing. I have to say out loud to myself throughout the day. You are here in this moment. I cannot relate with people the same way. It’s like the inside of all my cells have been scooped out. I used to be a spitfire now I dare not have ego with anyone. It’s like wearing a cinder lock hat.

[@MalghalaraTabeer]

Reason of suicide?

[@garyfreeland5154]

My wife has been dead for a year 4 months and 3 days and we'd been together for 36 years.. She was my heart and soul and I can't wait to join her because without her my heart will never heal.. I know God is with me and people say move on or find someone else but I'm almost 70 and 'No One' can take her place and she was the my first love and our first time being married.. I wouldn't want anyone to go through what I've gone through, the pain in my heart won't stop.. I miss you so damn much Julie I'll be with you again some day sooner more than later.. Thank you God for taking he home on that Mountain and the pain she was having.. I will only love you Julie, ever..

[@falconer3991]

I'm so sorry, Gary. May Julie rest in peace.🙏❤🕊Your comment was so loving.

[@randomhodgepodge8902]

After 42 years, the last of which was almost a month in the hospital, I lost my husband in February. All I'm able to do right now is survive. Yes such a loss absolutely gives you perspective. Move through the grief in your own time in your own way. I wish you and all those who have lost the strength to continue.

[@kirkformoso9776]

I lost my wife and daughter due to covid this October 4, 2020 she is 6 months pregnant for our first baby we've been together for 8 years, we just got married last June everything seems to be going well this year until this happened! The pain is killing me everyday, I've lost my purpose in life she is the one who always motivates me to do best with everything, I've worked hard to make sure that I can provide everything that they need but all of this is nothing without them! God knows I love them more than everything! I'm not sure if I can survive this, no one understands the pain that ive been going through everyday! Life is hard!

[@TosTinMan]

Jesus is the only One that can heal your heart and give you a peace and comfort that nothing in this world can give you. Please read my best friend's story. She explains how you can get true peace. God bless you. Precious Memories-By Sonya Lakey Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** This testimony has been made into a gospel tract.

Thanks for posting these. I just lost my wife yesterday and I find videos like this helpful, knowing how others deal with it. I don't think anyone can fully understand how it is to lose a husband or wife, especially if you had a good marriage as I did (we said "I love you" to each other several times a day, and in fact, that was her last words to me). I'm struggling to be positive and not get overwhelmed with grief... to balance things, but it's not easy. I think keeping myself busy, finding something to do each day will help. I dread having to go through her things. I still don't know how I'm going to be able to go on without her. We were married 36 years, known each other for 39. I've been praying to God a lot for help, comfort and guidance.

I feel the same empty and dark

[@playertwo3465]

Like many of us here,Lost my girl too. 4 months the after the birth of our second son. Our oldest was 1 1/2. She passed at home in my arms suddenly and out of nowhere in front of them. I couldn't bring her back, or protect my kids from seeing it. Still I feel empty without her, and raising two boys without her it so hard. But I have these two beautiful gifts she left me with.

[@Grogster2007]

I was a very dark, lonely negative person before I met my partner. She came into my life like sunshine on a rainy day. Now that she has been taken from me with pancreatic cancer it is like someone has turned off the lights. No words came fill the void. I don't feel angry at anyone who reaches out but I just don't see how I will ever be the same person again. Patsy was amazing and I feel sorry for the world now that she's gone.

[@segovia1able]

Dear " brother". I am walking in the same shoes. My beloved wife ( who was my only love in my life, and I am totally alone again, like before her) had the " big transition " about a year ego, also from pancreatic cancer. The brain cancer took her finally. She suffered a lot with lung cancer also. 3 main things that is real help, and final solution for our most difficult human experience: I know she is " there" and " well" right now. ( she sent me four different messages from the " other side " since she moved there) 2, : we are together even now in a mysterious way, we belong to each other beyond time, so right now also. 3, : when I will have to have the transition from this lifeform, I will be with her again in a more and improved reality , to improve our relationship, and continue to have even better experiences together. One of the sign- message from her ( or from other good powers , about us. Since I can't be sure, who arranged this mysterious sign about us...??l) ---- was not my personal experience, --- so nobody can say : " Joseph you just imagine this " supernatural " sign. The messages was with my Uber and Lyft roots. That's nothing with me. This sign could not be just a coincidence, especially beacouse 4 other side- factors came with it, that proves, this is not just a coincidence. Little too long to tell you in details, what is happened that day. ( that day was the second month 60 day enniversary of her passing.(from this life). I wish if my experience helps to others, since we are all brothers and sisters.... on this planet. --- Joe

My girlfriend died today. She was 15 (I'm 16 btw). Still trying to get to grips with the fact I'll never see her again. The sadness is on and off it's pretty weird. I know it'll get better but I'm not gonna suppress my emotions. When sadness comes I'll let it. When I'm feeling ok I'll make the most of it. I saw a quote today when I was looking for videos to help me deal with how I'm feeling: "Grief is just love that has nowhere to go". Makes me tear up just typing it out. It hurts, man.

Thank you for sharing. Your sharing helps with the knowledge that I am not alone with this type of suffering and that I can keep going. I was with my wife for over 24 years. I watched her die for three months and have the same perspective you shared. She has been gone for nine months now. To add to losing my wife my dog passed away two months later and almost immediately after her passing we went on this terrible COVID isolation. The best advice I will take from you sharing is focus on tasks for the day.

Jesus is the only One that can heal your heart and give you a peace and comfort that nothing in this world can give you. Please read my best friend's story. She explains how you can get true peace. God bless you. Precious Memories-By Sonya Lakey Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** This testimony has been made into a gospel tract.

My wife of 48 years died less than two weeks ago. All of a sudden, I find myself alone in a house we made together, confined to a wheelchair. I really can't find any reason to continue. Our children are all grown and moved away. I guess I'm supposed to just throw all her stuff away. I can't do that yet. I know she's gone, but the change is so abrupt it's been hard for me to adapt. I've reached for the phone dozens of times to give her a quick call to tell her some trivial thing, which is what we used to do. I imagine her voice all day long. Living just to exist is no life at all.

@@John-uk7hb I get it. I was once in your same, exact position. I would beg God every night to not allow me to wake up. I went to several different bereavement groups because I was desperate. The grief and suffering were so unbearably painful. I got on an antidepressant at the advice of a grief counselor/therapist and the meds coupled with the counseling helped ease the pain a little. I eventually got off the meds and I still talk to my therapist from time-to-time. Maybe you can look into meds and/or a therapist?

My spouse has been battling Stage IV breast cancer for the past two years. We found out this week, on my birthday no less, that it keeps spreading even while on chemo. So...we may be running out of options and may be looking at stopping her treatments. It was hard for me to hear that news, even though I knew it was a real possibility this entire time. Living for the day seems to be great advice. I told her that, if this is indeed the end of her line, that I want her to LIVE and not just wait to die. "Yell it out with me!! I want you to FEEL alive!!" If she takes me up on this, these next several months are going to be amazing. It helps me, because I am not looking forward to what is inevitably coming...

First off, sorry for your loss. I searched for handling the death of a spouse because my wife who is 41 is diagnosed with terminal cervical cancer and is in hospice. She has maybe days left at the most and I was looking for videos to help me cope. Clicked on yours first honestly because I spotted the Niners cap. They have always been a huge part of my life and my wife and I were even married at City Hall in SF and went to a game at Levi’s as part of the trip. Anyway, thanks for your comforting words and perspective. I’m a whirlwind of emotions as I’m doing things like planning a cremation which I never thought I’d be doing at this age. Your video helped. Thanks, peace to you, and go Niners.

[@npenick66]

My situation is similar. My wife of 20 years caught a 'mild' flu last January 5th, it seemed pretty normal. She was feeling a little under the weather, nothing major. She wanted to nap for a bit so I tucked her into her recliner with her new Christmas blanket, got her some ice water, cold meds, and humidifier. She said 'Thank You, I love you' and smiled at me (luckily our son recorded us on the iPad that he got for Christmas). I took our 14 year old semi verbal autistic son into the other room so that she could rest. She had her cat Mandu in her lap and her dog Tyson at her feet. A couple of hours later I went to take the dog out so that he wouldn't wake her and I noticed that her lips were white, CPR was ineffective. She was gone at 52 years old. As rough as that was trying to explain to a special needs kid that Mama is gone and never coming home is worse. If it wasn't for our son needing me I'm sure that I would have shortly joined her. In the next few weeks my hair and beard went pure white (I keep it short) and I lost 40 pounds, she was a very good cook. I'm 9 months down the line now, my hair is half way back to pepper with a sprinkling of salt. I'm semi functional again, slowly getting back into a routine. It really does change your perspective. I have much lower tolerance for BS now, I don't get mad I just don't participate. The little things (and most big things) are just details that aren't that important and don't bother me much. Other than keeping the boy happy and healthy, giving him as good a life as possible not much else seems worth worrying about. Most of the stuff I see in the news seems stupid, people and countries vying for position, dominance and $$. People looking up to vapid celebrities (I know, redundant) and asking low IQ people what they 'think'. We're a silly species. There are good people out there who care and try to help. I was surprised by the support from the special needs teachers and aides at my son's school. They've been great. Family and friends for the most part disappeared after 3 weeks or so. Most people knew us as a couple and can't seem to transition to just me and my son. I get it, before my wife died I'd have been clueless as to how help someone who lost a spouse.

[@uksteelcityredleg3852]

A wound that never heals it seems. I lost my precious wife ten years ago and still it hurts. We were young together and made a life with one another. Seventeen years gone in the time it takes for an automobile accident to take place. Telling your 10 year old son that his mother is gone is still blazed into my mind. Time has went by, there has been some laughs during that time, but she stays in the back of my mind always. I just took some old pictures out to remember her beauty. I have so much video that I still can’t watch of our family and friends together. The memories are haunting.

I lost my wife 1 month ago today, New Years 2024. In March she had been sent home from the hospital on hospice and had done very well for a long time but then started declining. Just before Christmas she really turned for the worst. We did what we could to keep her comfortable but it was so hard watching her life slip away. My left hand was on her chest to feel her last heartbeat and my right hand was holding hers. I know she’s joining in the worship around the throne in heaven, completely healed of all sickness and pain, but I’m here left to second-guess everything about her care as I sit in our quiet and empty home. So glad I’ve found videos from others to help me as I go forward, to sympathize with others going through loss and to know there is a path forward.

You are going to go through many trials and hardships in this life, but Jesus is the only One who can heal your brokenness and set you free from the bondage the devil has over your mind and give you a peace and comfort that nothing in this world can give you. God bless you. Precious Memories-By Sonya Lakey Family Story Little did our family of six know that Friday evening, September 24th, 2021, would be the last night our family would be complete. We laughed together, played games, sang, and enjoyed listening as our 16-year-old son, Ethan, played the piano for us. I packed a lunch for Ethan for a church mountain hike he was going on the following day. My mother (who was visiting from out of state) and I woke early with Ethan on Saturday morning. He hugged me and smiled, never pulling away or rushing me. He got in the car, waved, said he'd see me later and he loved me. It was hard to watch my "new driver" heading out on his own that morning. As Ethan pulled out of the gate, I turned to my mother and said, "It's just so hard letting go." Little did I know how much "letting go" I was really doing. That was the last time I saw Ethan. He did not make it home that evening. That afternoon, a friend tried to contact my husband, leaving an urgent message to call him back. He tried several times to return the call to no avail. As we were preparing supper, an overwhelming feeling of deep concern for Ethan filled my heart. I quietly blinked back tears. I glanced out the window, half expecting to see a police officer pull up to the house, but no one arrived. However, within a few minutes, a patrol car DID pull into the driveway. In my heart, I feared the worst. My husband and I went out to meet the officer, who confirmed our fears. Hesitantly, he told us our son had fallen off of a bluff and had succumbed to his injuries. Our hearts were crushed; they still are. Yet, in all of our brokenness, deep, continual grief and loneliness, our family has such a blessed Hope and assurance that we will see our dear son and brother again. You see, when Ethan was a young boy, he was saved; he put his faith in Jesus alone to forgive his sins and to take him to Heaven when he died. He realized some very important truths from the Bible that he would want to share with you. His Story Everyone is a sinner. Sin is any violation of God’s Law. God is holy, just and righteous, and He cannot allow sin in His presence. Ethan realized that he - like all of us - had sinned; and his sin separated Him from God. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ” (Romans 3:23) “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12) He understood that, because of his sin, he deserved to spend eternity in Hell. “For the wages of sin is death;” (Romans 6:23a) [Wages: price] “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8) Ethan believed that Jesus, God’s Son, paid the price for all sin when He died on the cross - because His sinless sacrifice was the only thing that could satisfy the just demands of a righteous, holy God. Jesus was buried in a borrowed tomb, but He arose the third day, triumphant over sin, death, and Hell. Jesus is alive today! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16) “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9) Ethan was sorry for his sin, repented (turned), and received by faith the free gift that God offered to him. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “...but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Because of this great salvation, Ethan lived his life serving Jesus. He worked hard to spread this Good News to the world. He is alive in Heaven with Jesus today; and because of this great HOPE in Christ, we know we will see him again soon - not because he was a great kid, but because of his faith in the great Saviour! “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28) Your Story What about you? What if you had fallen to your death that day - What if you were to die today? Where will you spend eternity - Heaven or the Lake of Fire? There will not be any parties in the Lake of Fire. It is a place of eternal torment for those who reject God's Son. The Word of God is very clear that there is only One Way to Heaven. “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6) We did not know that Ethan would step into eternity that day; however, because he put his faith in Jesus alone for his salvation, Ethan was ready to go. Some day - perhaps today - you will take your last breath here on earth, and you will step into eternity. Where you spend eternity is determined by what you do with Jesus Christ. Will you accept Him or reject Him? You are not promised another day or another breath. Eternity begins soon - Are you ready? “...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved…” (Acts 16:31b) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13) “(...behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2c) ****************************** This testimony has been made into a gospel tract.

So I just saw this video 5 years later I wish there was more. But I lost my wife to a heart attack a month ago. I’m 39 and she was 42. I’m still so heart broken and don’t know what to do. It was to soon and I have so much difficulty accepting it. But thank you for sharing your story.

I'm sorry for your loss.

i lost my wife 5 months ago. we used to go dancing every Saturday night and we loved dancing to 50s and 60s music and the radio play our songs all the time..i try to keep busy but even so the grief and tears come every day.. As for the vacations we so loved to plan, i am not sure how life can ever be the same.. i have plenty of support but will the sun ever shine for me again?

[@leahskinner2607]

Thanks I can relate understand you I just wish I had someone to talk to but I don't and just got to deal with it

[@chrisjohnson2246]

I'm so sorry I know how it feels to be lonely without the person you love, such is life I understand how you feel but life goes on, I lost my wife 3yrs ago to a terrible heart disease, I felt deeply devastated with grief, but that's the past now, time is indeed the best healer I'd love to talk to you more if you don't mind it'd be nice if you just say hi here is my number [phone]

[@sunshine9122]

I'm so sorry for your loss and the tough road you find yourself navigating. I still find myself in your shoes sometimes although it's been nearly ten years since my husband died. I was seeing a grief therapist during the early days of my husband's death, but after I stopped seeing her, it's very difficult to talk to others because they simply don't get it and/or our grief makes them uncomfortable. And in turn, their discomfort makes us uncomfortable too. I get it. I'm so sorry. I hope you're doing a little better.❤

I lost my husband last November from a blood clot to the heart pretty sudden it really does change your perspective on things I think the first 6 months is like the Twilight Zone I don't know how else to explain it

[@TosTinMan]

That's true. I hope you're doing good!

i came across your touching comment in the death of love ones post here on you tube. Well am really sorry about that okay 😒☹️and I know how it feels to be lonely without our love ones, we've all lost our love ones in death one way or the other, either a spouse, child, family members, or a true friend that meant the world to us, such is life I understand how you feel but life must move on because death is inevitable no matter how hard we try! And we'll all have to face it someday..

[@jen4yahwehsal176]

@@richardbradshaw7830 I'm actually doing good my faith and God has gotten stronger We all move on But losing a spouse is not like losing a relative you lost the love of your life But I'm moving on And I'm dating men now looking for my 2nd life partner I trust in the Lord 100%

[@richardbradshaw7830]

@@jen4yahwehsal176 It's really nice hearing you got such a very strong faith in God. And yes you're totally right about everything you said, indeed loosing a spouse hurts much more differently to be honest.

My husband passed and went with the Lord Jesus Christ. My heart hurts everyday. I hope heal soon.

I get what you are saying. I worry about not being here for my son since my husband died.

[@garyfreeland5154]

Sorry for your loss but I don't give a shit about the future or if I don't wake up .. Its only been a month and 4 days.. She was 67 and I'm 68 ..

[@54GARYBOY]

Your comment hit me as if you were me. It may seem harsh but I lost my wife at 62 when I was 64-3 years ago. I wish I could say "it gets better". But after so many of those from so many as I hit 3 years in August-well its your comment that I live on as well. Actually still seeking that last sleep as the future we planned and wanted is now gone and I am too far into life to get back in "the game". Its day to day-night by night -do the best I can. Good Luck adjusting is all I can tell you.

Thanks, you too!

I never knew people close to me would die young in their thirties. My partner was in a hospital but they didn't allow me to see her because I was on probation. My partner wanted to see me after a fatal accident but authorities refused that we had contact. I am not even allowed to claim her body since I am not a relative. I neglected my partner for months to prevent fights instead of resolving them. I abused her and was forgiven many times and my anxiety disorder took over relationship. I get hiccups on my disorder but I don't pay attention to it or react to it. I didn't just lose a close person, I lost myself. Would my soulmate forgive me after reincarnation?

[@srsagayasanthi5302]

Yes sure our priorities change . It should, otherwise their is no meaning of the love we have for them. Together we would have planned everything, and without him is it possible to move on like before . Not at all. The pain will be till we die. Moving on is impossible . We have to move with it. I am from India. And the subject discussed by you was really real sir
