Right now we're struggling through the sudden death of my mother.I'm asking for prayer. Truthfully I'm suffering like never before.This is a pain that feels bigger than I am but I know that with God and prayer I'll get through it.Right now I'm hurting so bad ..
Who else has lost a parent or loved one? Could you please share with me how you got through it? And please keep my family lifted up in your prayers.
Thanks in advance.

Lost my dad a few years ago and that hurt a lot but I found it to be true that time heals all wounds. My wife lost her mom at age 8 and her dad at age 12. That hurt a lot as she was bounced around a lot from place to place but the experience shaped her to be a strong, self-reliant, independent woman. I have said a prayer for God to be with you and your family during these times and those the lie ahead.

10-four, I just want to give you some encouragement in the Lord, as He will be you refuge & strength in this storm. He will keep you anchored in His love and walk with you & your family through your grieving one day at a time. There is no easy path when it comes to mourning the loss of a loved one. I'm so sorry to hear of the sudden loss of your mom, as I can only imagine what you & your family must be going through. Stay close to Jesus, as He will be your strength. I lost my husband to an sudden illness almost three years ago. It was so unexpected, but all I can say is how our Heavenly Father is near to the broken hearted. As a family we truly felt the Lords loving arms around us as He carried us through that difficult season of loss. He is the God of all comfort, and He will walk you & your family through the valley of the shadow of death. The Lords will light the path before you. Lean into the Lord, & let Him bring you comfort & peace during this time of grieving. Lord Jesus, I pray that Your loving arms of Love will cover this family, and give them strength as each new sunrise comes, and may your peace be with them during this time of grieving. In Jesus name... (A comforting song to listen to- from Brian Doerkson.."Arms of Love"

I'm praying for you and your family!

I regret I don't have much to say about the loss of your mom since I haven't been through that myself but just know that God is good and He will never leave you; God is faithful and always will be.

I'll be thinking of you and your family in the days ahead.

Be blessed.

i'm so sorry. this is tough.
my mom died last July. i was devastated, and i'm old! but i knew, from losing dad 10 years ago, that the pain and grief fade, and are replaced by all the happy memories, so i wait for that.

wait for God. He will help you. i am praying.

I’m so sorry for your loss, friend. My heart ached as I read your post. Losing our loved ones is very hard, and the impact of such a loss is deep. The sorrow can affect us in many ways. Your memories of your mom will always be with you. It hurts, and yet the hurting isn’t all bad, because it’s a part of the love you feel for her. It’s important to let yourself go through the process and give yourself as much time as you need. It’s okay to cry, let the tears come. This can be a way to release pain. I recently lost my dad. It’s been very painful and I miss him so very much. I can understand how painful and devastating it must be for you. I said a prayer for you and your family, asking God to comfort you and heal you whenever you hurt. I know it’s not easy right now, but stay strong. Please remember that you can always come here for help and support. Hugs!

Thank you all so very much for the prayers and kind words.I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm broken right now. I don't mind admitting that today I cried like a child.Every memory of her hurts..even the good ones...but still I feel hopeful while trusting the Lord to help me be strong.All of your prayers have helped me and I honestly appreciate it.
