I know I have been gone a long time again. But I have a lot of thinking to do. I am settling down in my widowhood and trying to figure out God's will for my life. Where does he want me? In what capacity does he want me? What about my church, where can I serve him best? Does he want me to remarry, to stay alone... I have no idea. I still cannot find my rhythm living alone. It is like, with nobody at home I don't feel like cooking or doing anything. I can't enjoy myself, without my husband or so it seems. I miss him terribly. I know he was a lot of work, but he was part of my life for 19 years and now it has almost been 2 years since he passed. Next month he would turn 58, in June we would celebrate our 21st anniversary and a week later is the second anniversary of his death. I am so confused and I need clarity. I have asked to sit for a while in church and seek the Lord and find answers. I could use your guys help in prayer and maybe also your help in finding my balance again, enjoying myself and life as such. Covid doesn't really make it any easier with all the restrictions, but that is another story. Thank you all.

Hugs Doris. While I have not been in your exact shoes I do remember when MJ was so sick and how life seemed to haze over and sort of stop. God doesn't want you to figure out His plan all at once. He tells us we have enough each day to handle. Just rest on that awhile. One day at a time, like the Christy Lane song.

Hugs Doris. As Mel said you won't find out all at once God's plan for your life. You may find out where He wants you right now but it can change a year from now. He may want you to help out at a women's shelter then next year He may need you somewhere else. As far as remarrying if He wants you to then He will bring someone to you....you won't need to go looking. Have you looked into being a foster parent?

If you like animals, maybe you could foster them. I will be praying for you.
