I’m sorry for your loss. These times are hard, but you are doing a great job staying thankful for what you have in these times.

thank you, Spanish Guy

My Condolences.

I asked my visitors to drop by as well.

It’s true, your MIL is the one in most need now!

appreciate so much the kind gesture, LL!
many many thanks!

I am so sorry to hear that your FIL passed away yesterday. But we know that now he stays with the heavenly father at the heaven.

Family members are the treasure given by the Lord, so let cherish them and love them and care for them.

Yes, we are also glad that at least now he isn’t hurting anymore.
thank you so much for the sweet and kind comments!

Bless your precious heart for being thankful in times of sadness. I am very sorry for the loss of your FIL. Your family is in my prayers.

thank you, too, Denise! appreciate the gesture.

I’m sorry for your loss, he sounds like a good guy. I suspect that he too would have been thankful that he got to know you as a daughter-in-law.

that’s so sweet, Adam. thank you!
as i am thankful that he was my FIL

I am sorry about your FIL. I pray that the next few days as arrangements are being made that the presence of the Lord will
hold you tight.
I am glad that you know he is waiting for ya’ll in heaven.

I am thankful that my in-laws are Christians and right now as the whole family is being gathered together we can all feel the love (and sadness) that holds us together.
thank you …

My prayers are with you and your family through this time. Your family is blessed to have such wonderful memories of your FIL. May time begin to heal the pain of your loss.

thank you, Ellie. I can only agree that it is only time that will heal pain such as this.

I am so sorry for the loss in your family…I think it is a beautiful tribute to you FIL….It is wonderful that he was such a wonderful spiritual leader of his family…

Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week, despite your loss…

Blessings to you and yours.

I am sorry to hear about your father in law and willl be praying for your family during this time. Thanks for sharing through a grateful heart this week!

My condolences on the loss of your father-in-law. I am very impressed with your list, however, and agree that you have much to be thankful for in this situation. How wonderful that the Divine has made it possible for you to give thanks!

thank you all, for dropping by, and the kind words…

Wow, that is some heavy life happenings but you were still able to give thanks - which is beautiful. I too experienced a similar situation with my grandmother. We knew it was coming but you are seriously never prepared for it when they leave you. Blessings to you and your family as you mourn.

Hope to hear from you more!
