It's comforting to know you're not the only one who's ever been widowed, and it gives hope and encouragement to read about what others went through and how God helped them. Plus, it's good for you to tell others about your experience. Honestly, I never tire of these stories--I'd love to hear from YOU!
Tell about when you were widowed and how you're doing now. Either write it as a comment, or Email me and I'll put it in for you. I'll post it as soon as I can, and everyone's piece will be collected in this category and/or under the "Wednesday Widows Stories" label. Here's the email address you can use: WCPlace@gmail.com
Include your name (first name and last name initial is enough), and general location. This blog is public so I like to keep your identity rather vague. Thanks! ♥ ferree
You're not alone. Here's a safe place, a growing place, a way out of the shadows of grief . . . This blog provides resources and Biblical direction for helping you trust Jesus through one of life's most difficult challenges.

You're Invited . . .
Take hope, my friend, join in and watch the darkness turn to light and gather strength for your journey. You'll see the ways others have struggled, survived and thrived. You'll discover key Scriptures and insights from God's Word that will feed your soul and give you hope. Click on the Memorial Wall tab above, pray for these women and add your own listing. This blog is about you and God's work in the hearts of widows!
As we grieve, life continues on around us; we need to make adjustments and function inspite of our struggles. So this blog not only addresses grief and gives you role models, it also looks at the single-living skills, spiritual disciplines, laughter, rest and the renewing worship you'll need to juggle.
Some articles are food for thought, some are quick and helpful tips, and every once in a while we'll get just plain silly because laughter is still good medicine.
There's a new life waiting to meet you, and a new hope waiting to bloom in your heart. But don't worry about that for now. God knows you want your old life back. He understands. So for now, just visit, rest, relax and renew for the journey ahead.
