Short note from our brother:

Thank you for your prayers. I do so much need them. I have no idea how I am going to make it through this.  But with God's help, maybe I can, but that is going to take a lot of help. Right now I can't see any light at the end of the tunnel.

PLEASE remember our brother every day in your prayers and do so often every day.

Truly, your dear wife is loved beyond words, and missed beyond measure.

My heartfelt sympathies, 4WD.

[Jaime]

Will do Red. Brother Jim (4WD) you faithfully serve the the creator of the universe that knows the number of hairs on your head. I know you have faith in Christ as well as confidence in His faithfulness in times like this. Your loss is so hard and I can't give you words that will take away the pain, but I will pray many times each day for God to give you strength and peace. Lean on us here collectively and or individually in PMs. I figure we ARE every bit a congregation of believers and we all want to help in any way to minister to you. I feel like I know you but we have never met.

I feel like I know you but we have never met.

It does feel like that. Kind of like we're all cousins in the same family.

[RB]

It does feel like that. Kind of like we're all cousins in the same family.

Have you ever heard the expression: "Blood is thicker than blood"? We are connected by the blood of Jesus Christ which is much more connected than natural blood kin. We should have much more in common than natural kin.

Only wish we were closer as far as living so we could comfort our brother even more.

4WD,

I am sorry that your wife died.  I will be praying for your family.

[4WD]

To all,

Thank each and every qne of you for your thoughts and prayers.  I am so happy for my dear beloved wife, I know that she is in the arms of her loving savior, Jesus Christ.  Her last couple of years were not easy; she is very blessed to have all of that behind her.  But her not being here with me brings waves of tears and crying.  I do miss her so. I am lost without her.  I took care of her and helped her through her tough times at the last; that was my goal in life and now I am ready to go be with her in her new good times.

Jim

The way God intended marriage to be - yet few experience that level of love and commitment.

Bless you, Jim.
