Not one, not two, but three deaths in a matter of two years. In the blink of an eye, they were gone, and I would never see them again. You never know what each day brings or if the events of the day will turn your day into a tragedy.
Living through my season of tragedy was really hard. I would not have made it if it were not for an amazing God. The pain of my loss was so great, but God was greater. He never left my side and was there to comfort me each step of the way.
I relied on Jeremiah 29:11: "For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future." God did give me hope, and he gave me a different future. One I could have never imagined.
I don't know how people go through something like this and not have God to lean on. I know without a doubt that if I didn't have God, I would have ended my life already.
