Healing doesn’t mean that we never think of lost loved ones, or that we stop loving them or that we never miss them… but as we learn to accept and adjust to life without our loved ones physically in it… we do get to the place where we can think of the good times and those memories bring smiles instead of tears… healing means that we are not stuck in our pain and that we go on to live our lives to the best of our ability, which is what our loved ones would want for us. They would want us to cherish each day as a gift and to be thankful for the many blessings we have remaining and to not focus on what we have lost. Healing is possible with God’s help…He tells us that He is near to the broken hearted and that He binds our wounds…He says that He will turn our mourning to joy and bring beauty from ashes…with His strength and through Him, we can do all things and nothing shall be impossible for us. Trust God with the broken pieces of your heart and He will fill those empty places with more of Himself.
