I’ve experienced life-changing grief and struggled for years with the physical changes, the emotional roller-coaster and the spiritual questioning.

I believed I would never be happy again and had all but given up on fulfilling my purpose. But God!

This is a story of faith, FRamily support and redemption that only God can author. And, I want to share this with you. If you are heart sick, tired of being stuck and ready for real change with Christ at the center …. Practical steps to make your hard days less hard…Understanding of what to expect physically, emotionally and spiritually…Solutions to those ‘gut-punch’ moments…And, Results that build your faith and allow you to enjoy your own ‘great day’ this is the place to be. It is possible, I promise! Join me today – take that first step of faith right now!! website: www.grief2greatday.com

SHOW NOTES
Walking through grief will be the hardest thing you ever do – for many reasons including losing your identity because you can no longer by the you - you were before your loved one died; or not knowing how to live a life different than the one you have lived for years or what you had expected to live with them. Also, the loss will never leave you. This is important because first, I don’t want to freak you out thinking that it will never get better – it will. But this is important in what we are talking about when it comes to crossroads moments after loss.
And before I get into what I want to share, please do not make any life-altering decisions for at least the first year. Your life has been altered and so has your brain because of grief. The brain is changed in grief, and it needs time to heal as well. So, to say you are not in your right mind in the first year of grief is pretty accurate. Because of that, no big financial decisions, selling the house decisions, relationship decisions should be made right now. If you have to sell property or move, then you have to but if you don’t have to – don’t.
I have gotten a lot of questions about dating recently. The questions have been specifically from women who have lost their husbands. However, beginning new relationships for anyone going through grief also applies here.
Today - the question is – how long should I wait until I date again?
WORD of the Week Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. 6 Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he's the one who will keep you on track. 7 Don't assume that you know it all. Proverbs 3:5-7 message
