Moving Forward

Do you remember looking at lists of ‘stressors’ and seeing your problems? Life happens. “Yes.” It is there. It’s OK to be upset or almost unglued, because ours is a common and real problem. That was yesterday. But here we are today, a widow. (I still don’t like the word.) Numb, puzzled, vulnerable, sad, frightened, angry, yet laughing at things most don’t find so funny. What has happened? We have experienced the top of the list item, ‘death of a spouse.’

Resources

We inform, encourage, and equip widows. We provide books, DVD¹s, Journals, CD¹s, radio podcasts, church resources and tools, spiritually based and practical. Internationally we provide skill training for widows for economic independence.

God Comforts

April 25, 2024

I love looking back through my old Bibles and reading the notes I’ve scribbled. Isaiah 51: 12–14 was highlighted in Romania as I sat with Lidi and Jeremiah Russu. Lidi clung to this verse 4 years before Jeremiah was in prison for possessing Bibles.  Lidi was quaking at home with their two babies.  Nicolae Ceausescu was a violent leader killing at will. She tossed and turned fearing that she would never see her husband again.  She picked up her Bible and read. “I am he who comforts you: why then are you afraid of a mere mortal who must die, […]
