Hello, Adrianna. Nicely said. Great words.

My husband would always be a believer to the saying "God will never give you something that he knows you will NOT be able to handle"... Now here I am, and do believe on this. Somehow, someway, I too get up everyday and try to make it through. Although, we have our ups and downs, mostly downs, we are still here.

I am so sorry but I have to be the voice of reason here. I lost a loved one too. My brother was only 17 when he was shot to death, and I personally think that if God was so great, he wouldn't let things like this happen in the first place. What kind of God would let a child get murdered for no reason? Especially after he went through so much abuse in tragedy already in his life. A God that loves us, should  not let things like this happen. I admit that people have free will, and people do the evil things in the world. However, God is all powerful, so why doesn't God do something to protect the innocent? People let God get away with everything. When are people going to say enough is enough?

My brother was killed, I want him back too.

Have you ever heard this poem

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room,
Why cry for a soul set free!
Miss me a little - but not for long
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me, but let me go.
For this journey that we all must take
And each must go alone;
It's all a part of the Master's plan
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart
Go to the friends we know,
Laugh at the things we used to do.
Miss me, but let me go.

What I try to say with this is that god gave me so many signs before it happend but I was too blind to see them, my husband wasn't the only one making mistakes I did too .. I feel as if god came to shake me .. He took the love of my life :( .. He had to put a stop to everything that was going on :( .. N after my husband passed away there was signs that he's ok that he's with god .. God let us know .. I'm sorry to hear that nadia, I'm sorry for your loss, I understand u cause I have more bad moments then good ones, n ure right the pain doesn't go away :( but please don't loose your faith in god!

I'm happy for you. Truly I mean it. This is hard and I'm happy that you are getting through it. I just wish God would help the other suffering people that scream out for help.

But this poem from the bible helps me sometimes, until I see my brother again.

1. I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.
2. As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.
3. As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.
4. He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.
5. Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love.
6. His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me.
7. I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.
8. The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.
9. My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh forth at the windows, shewing himself through the lattice.
10. My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.
11. For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;
12. The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;
13. The fig tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape give a good smell. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.
14. O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely.
15. Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.
16. My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies.
17. Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether.
