dealing with death through the bible

Since there are 31, I try to read the one that corresponds to the date, I.e. Reading the first one on the first day of the month, the second one on the second day of the month, etc.

Im not sure about your religious beliefs, but if you're a Christian and read the bible, this may be highly unlikely. I'm truly sorry for your loss I understand the pain quite well, I'm only saying this in love but it does not say in the bible that a person who has passed away meets another who's life has already began. Only that if both people are dead physically.

This is interesting and I am thankful for the postings I have read so far. It would be interesting to hear from others how they think/feel G-d speaks to them via Bible or other books, etc. and how they know it is Him. I find comfort in the Bible. The other day I could have read Psalm 16 over and over and over. When I had "storms", I would kneel by the bed or sit in a place with the Bible and pray/read & sometimes just drifted off for a short time.

then see a psychiatrist to be evalutated and a therapist to help give you the toolss needed for dealing with depression and to get all the emotional baggage off your back that you have been toting around. I found the therapy to be the best thing in my treatment you hang in there and dont be so hard on yourself.

You have been through a great deal,not only did you lose your brother in such a tragic way you didnt grieve as you had to be strong for him,now 2 years on you are feeling the sadness the fear and the loss,it is only natural what you are going through,you need to grieve properly,you will never get over this but maybe with help and support you will be able to ease the hurt and learn to cope with the fears that you haveat the moment,please ask about speaking to a theripist about this my thoughts ar

I read the Bible and know the history of the Bible. People make the mistake of thinking it is the infallible Word of God. It is a Book that has been passed down and rewritten time and time again. Once I accepted this I don’t get bent out of shape over the “Bull ****” God or what ever you chose to call him/her, is a Spirit (it says so in the Bible), and is not contained by a book. The #1 reason that Atheists and Agnostics use is the Bible.

Believe the Bible, If they are a Christian, they are home with the Lord, they do not come back down to earth. I too believe and have heard they are Demons, rebuke them, don't be deceived by Satan and his wicked and hurtful lies.

Hi Lisa, my sister who is a doctor actually called me yesterday and cried. She is still struggling with my mother's death after 2 yrs. There is no way around it. My mother's birthday is next Wednesday and it's another year without the woman who gave birth to me and her birthday is Thanksgiving. It's still difficult, but our family is going to get together, take her flowers for her birthday and Thanksgiving and we have so much to be thankful with a new baby in the family.

I'm really interested in "Life After Death" experiences, and have read many accounts of people who have gone over to the other side briefly and returned. One of my favorite collections was "Imagine Heaven" by John Burke. Very well-documented case histories of people who were clinically dead briefly, or in a coma, etc., and even while they were unconscious saw things going on around the hospital, or even things going on at their homes.

t matter how old or young your mother is, the loss of a mother is devistating at any age and in order to heal, you must go through the grief process and you will never be the same. I grieved so deeply that I went to my mother's grave, fell on my knees on top of it and began sob asking her "mommy, where are you mommy"....I felt like a child who lost her mom and couldn't find her. I will be ok one day. That day is not today nor tomorrow....one day.

When testing (suffering comes along) the truth that we know from the bible mingles with the faith we have and we rely on God to get us through. God delivers us and our faith grows. We past the test. The next test comes and then the next and the next. Each test becomes a little more difficult than the last (just like exams do). The more difficult the test, the greater the deliverance God provides.

Many geniuses and artists respected through the ages were bipolar, so I try to express the gifts and the burden. I don't know if I make a difference, but at least I am trying to. Like coming to this forum and talking with you, I am always looking for ways to use my experience to make the world better. Keep searching for your answers, you will find them, keep knocking on doors, they will open, keep asking, you will receive what you need.

I would not put to much stock into the number 23, remember the numbering of the chapters and verses of the Bible was done by man, not God (I am not saying the Bible isn't inspired because it is, just that the numbering was added to assit in reading and studying). I too have a strong faith in Jesus and have had thoughts of death, but know it is just from my anxiety and depression.

At first it seems like the light at end of the tunnel, is so far and out of reach, but with the right support the tunnel is not so scary. This is what I tell myself everyday. I say, "Rachel, live today like Cooper would want you to!" "Live this day to make all his Angel Buddies proud!!" Your daughter does not want you to be sad, she wants you to LIVE. Keep her alive by sharing her life with others, the more you tell the more will LOVE!!!!!

im 19 wks pregnant and i have a fetus with a diagnosis of CPC im scared to death because i have to wait 3 wks to go to a specialist...anyone have any hopes or ideas??

Many times I needed help from family to take turns taking my mother to her appointments, but everyone was too busy and forgot that although I lived with her, I also had the responsibilities of a job. I was blessed to have a job with the Archdiocese of Chicago where they were compassionate and gave me all the time necessary and hold on to my job. My mother was Christian so reading the bible to her was great joy. I also had to put away her cloth and donate them, which was just awful for me.

Thank you for sharing that. I too thank God for being with me through the toughest part of my life and helping me stay afloat. My favorite verse is: "I can do all things through Christ who strenthens me".philippians 4:13 on days that I can't go to church, I watch sermons on my computer at (************.org) and that helps alot. God bless you and continue holding on to Jesus. Soon He will come and there will be no more sorrow or pain or death!

m sorry to hear that both of you have been suffering with anxiety. Medication is very effective for dealing with the symptoms, but medication is only masking what's really going on inside you. I would strongly advise both of you to consider getting into therapy to deal with the root cause of your anxiety. Fear of being alone seems to be a big part of anxiety for both of you.

for the baby and how much will effect him. I usually a very emotional person when dealing with death and I feel like a horrible person for not allowing myself to feel bad. What do I do???

The simple nuts and bolts of it is you either suffer through once but for a couple of weeks or do you go through the first week 30 times over and over? I finally woke up and allowed myself to make it two weeks, then a month, then two months. I am not going to lie, the first month was tough and it felt like 3 months but with each day it got better and once you reach your "Normal" place, it is all worth it!

Sorry I hit post on accident. It was hard dealing with my grandmothers loss but I pulled thru. The hardest part was seeing my mom in so much pain. I was about 10 weeks when that happened. Then, just a few weeks ago my hubby's good friend passed away from Luekemia. We are still getting thru that. It's been hard but we try to remain positive and this k about the time we did get to spend with them. I'm very sorry for your loss.

ve been on the oxy. God is the only person that helps me get through this each day.

Hi there Charlotte, I thought I should check in with you and see if you are doing any better now that you are taking amitrypyiline. I sure do hope so!!! I know that dealing with doctors who really don't have the foggiest idea about what pain we are in is so frustrating. I'm contemplating a G.P. change soon. I dread having to start once again with a new doctor. At my age (63 soon) it is getting a little old (no pun intended)! Take good care of yourself. Carol C.

I think the worse part is the pain and dealing with no sleep. I sleep for about 2 hours at a time and can't make it past 3:30 AM every morning. I appreciate your reply and i know there are alot of people on here that are going through the same thing. I'm just trying to deal with it. I have no energy and i can't get too far from the bathroom. I think taking the ultram for a couple of days (200 er, 1 a day) might have set me back on my plan to stop all together.

When it was time to quit Vicodin the pain came back worse than before, but I learned that it was the withdrawal talking to me. Once I got through WD the pain went away gradually to a level I found i could live with. I still do PT, walk at least 3 miles a day and I take 750MG of Naproxin a day, which takes the edge off. But this is my experience. I know you have your very own pain, completely personal to your case only. No two bad backs are exactly the same.

s exhausting, and I am just curious if anyone has tips on dealing with these symptoms, or just simply some ways that you yourself through the bad days without totally crashing out.
