Widowhood

'When you think of someone who is a widow, most of us imagine a woman in her 80s or 90s, but according to the U.S. Census Bureau, the average age of widows is 59-years-old, but many are much younger. In fact, almost 2,800 women become widowed every day.'

Healthy Living: Modern Widow

 

There is a statement that has stuck with me through many very tough life experiences.....

“When the storm breaks, each man acts in accordance with his own nature. Some are dumb with terror. Some flee. Some hide. And some spread their wings like eagles and soar on the wind.”Unknown

 

I believe widows have these four choices and it’s up to us what we decide to do each day. Choose well for the Lord is with us all and He would have us soar and let our tears fall like rain upon the thirsty souls in need around us.
