I need help. Very sad today my dad died 7 months today. At work everythings has gone wrong. Just need some HAPPY thoughts. DeVon

Hi DeVon, I just wanted to add that I am thinking of you and hope that your day got better. It's now evening in Australia and I've just read this post, and from what I've read there are lots of lovely thoughts and prayers heading your way. I pray that things will be better tomorrow.

Love and blessings to you Chris

I hope this is not too long to post but it is something that find comforting.
Do Not Mourn for me
Some things I'd like to say
but first of all to let you know
that I arrived okay
I'm writing this from Heaven
where I dwell with God above
where there's no more tears
or sadness there
is just eternal love
Please do not be unhappy
just because I'm out of sight
remember that I'm with you
every morning, noon and night
That day I had to leave you
when my life on Earth was through
God picked me up and hugged me
and He said I welcome you
It's good to have you back again
you were missed while you were gone
as for your dearest family
they'll be here later on
I need you here so badly
as part of My big plan
there's so much that we have to do
to help our mortal man
Then God gave me a list of things
He wished for me to do
and foremost on that list of mine
is to watch and care for you
And I will be beside you
every day and week and year
and when you're sad
I'm standing there
to wipe away the tear
And when you lie in bed at night
the days chores put to flight
God and I are closest to you
in the middle of the night
When you think of my life on Earth
and all those loving years
because you're only human
they are bound to bring you tears
But do not be afraid to cry
it does relieve the pain
remember there would be no flowers
unless there was some rain
I wish that I could tell you
of all that God has planned
but if I were to tell you
you wouldn't understand
But one thing is for certain
though my life on Earth is o're
I am closer to you now
than I ever was before
And to my very many friends
trust God knows what is best
I'm still not far away from you
I'm just beyond the crest
There are rocky roads ahead of you
and many hills to climb
but together we can do it
taking one day at a time
It was always my philosophy
and I'd like it for you too
that as you give unto the World
so the World will give to you
If you can help somebody
who is in sorrow or in pain
then you can say to God at night
my day was not in vain
And now I am contented
that my life it was worthwhile
knowing as I passed along the way
I made somebody smile
So if you meet somebody
who is down and feeling low
just lend a hand to pick him up
as on your way you go
When you are walking
down the street
and you've got me on your mind
I'm walking in your footsteps
only half a step behind
And when you feel the gentle breeze
or the wind upon your face
that's me giving you a great big hug
or just a soft embrace
And when it's time for you to go
from that body to be free
remember you're not going
you are coming here to me
And I will always love you
from that land way up above
Will be in touch again soon
P.S. God sends His Love

Toni lee

I'm sorry to hear you're having a bad day> Remember your dad will always be with you in spirit. Your Cute family are always near to give you cheer. Hugs & lessings

DeVon, I am a very old lady, whose mother and father passed many years ago. But, they live with me in spirit each day, as I face all the challenges that come my way.
When things go wrong, and I start to get overwhelmed, I hear my mother saying, "Relax, dear, T'ain't no biggie! This too shall pass!" On days I have moments of accomplishments, I hear, "Way to go! That's my girl!"
They are my guardian angels keeping watch over me each day. I feel their presence, whatever my mood, and know they are smiling at me with so much love. Your dad is doing the same for you! No matter what today brings, I always have hopes of a better tomorrow; put my burdens in the Lord's hands, cause after all so little is within my control, only His!
Angel

So sorry about your sad loss.
I will pray for us all, that we can remember the good times we have shared with our loved ones that are no longer with us.
God Bless You.
From Bev

I'll try something to cheer you up, because if I tell you my Dad passed in 1979 and I still miss him, that will only make you sadder.

I tried to upload the videos but it wouldn't work so please just check out the links and please don't be sad any more.
Hugs n roses, Meganne
PS, I kept the best for last :-)

>PS, I kept the best for last :-)

Holidays are difficult. After our 24 yr. old daughter died, we thought we'd go to Nashville for a country Christmas to take our minds off of our loss. Bad idea. The song I'll be home for Christmas nearly killed me. I got some very funny looks from people who didn't know. Of course I was blubbering too much to explain. I'd recommend being around children this time of the year. Our 5 yr. old granddaughters are so excited that they are giddy. One of them thinks she is supposed to dress up as a Christmas character on Christmas eve. She wants to be a reindeer. My thoughts are with you.

What a happier thought just to know that where he is he is healthy and happy and that one day you will see him again. Praise the Lord. Merry Christmas.*****

My prayers that you will cherish the moments you both shared! Many hugs *2U

So sorry your having a bad day, Just think of it this way you have your very own guardian angel. And there is a saying I heard on FB. It goes something like this, I don't need an Angel on my Christmas Tree I have a Guardian Angel looking down on me. Have a blessed day. I know the holiday season is hard when you have lost someone so dear to you. I hope tomorrow is a better day. Sara

Sorry you're having a bad day, know how you feel without having your parent here as the holidays can be very stressful. Use this time to reflecton the good times the two of you shared they'll rekindle your soul. Smile, God loves you.

I know you are missing your Dad so much so I pray God will bring all the joyful memories of your Dad to you...may your heart be filled with warm memories.....Gods blessings Janet

DeVon, so sorry to hear that you are having such a bad day - please go to the personal section here - there are some great posts there - that may bring you some joy - two are posted by me and I did laugh right out loud with them. *4U


Days are not always easy - my Mother (Miss Loretta passed 10 months ago and it is never easy to get through every day without her - but I do know this - that she is sitting and the hem of God's gown and helping guide him everyday - it was her way to help keep my DH with me for a longer period of time - I think of her often and especially this time of year - she was a giving lady and would have had so much to share with others this year, however - her sense of humor was what I try to remember the most about her and her joy of living life. I will be praying for you dear.

I am so sorry to hear about your sweet Daddy. I know it is hard . I lost my Mom not so long ago. There are so many feelings that rush at you at this time of year . memories are so strong . I pray for Gods sweet presance at this time . Call on Him . He truely is THE comforter .

Take care, thinking of you

So sorry to hear that, well wishes and good thoughts headed right to you now! Try to push through, tomorrow is another day.
Debra

Just remember God is so good and He loves you very much.
