As JOB puts it:

“Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised.”

When you’re angry and bitter, you can still cling to Jesus in the midst of your tears. You can grab onto him and refuse to let go until he brings you through it. You’ll find, to your surprise, that he holds on to you even tighter than you hold on to him.

Jesus understands sorrow. He knows about being hurt. He remembers the terrible moment on the cross when his Father was forced to abandon him, because he was filthy from taking on our sins. Jesus won’t let you go.

And as you age and start down the path from this life to the next, Jesus will take your hand to guide you. He appreciates all that you have done for him through the years, but what he has always wanted most is your love. When you can’t do good deeds any more to show him your love, the love itself still remains.

In those times when your joy or abilities are stripped away and you realize that all you have left is Jesus, you’ll discover, as I have, that Jesus is all you need.

The only thing you can do….take it one day at a time. Just like a broken leg, your heart needs time to heal. You can’t just snap your fingers and make it better. You just have to live with it until your mind and body begin to heal. You might not get over it completely…and you may have “scars,” but they make you unique and your life experience is part of who you are as a person. Sometimes, they even give you purpose. Maybe you’ll set out to volunteer with others who are leading the fight against cancer…and maybe on your draw, we’ll win it. You never know what the future holds. Life can be amazing and terrible all at the same time:/ I’m sorry that it’s been so cruel and my prayers and best wishes go out to you. Hang in there and stay strong!

It’s very difficult to get through something like this without God. You need the solace that only knowing you will see your loved ones again can provide.
