Making It Through Mother’s Day After Loss 💙


Mother’s Day can be beautiful… but it can also be incredibly hard when you’ve lost a child.


This Mother’s Day has brought a lot of emotions for me. I miss my daughter deeply, and there are moments when the grief still feels very heavy.


There’s an emptiness that comes with losing a child that never fully goes away.


But by the grace of God, I’m making it through one moment at a time. 🙏


And while my heart misses my daughter here on earth, I’m also thankful for the blessings God has still given me.


I still have my handsome son, and I have three beautiful grandchildren that I love with all my heart. 💕


They bring joy, smiles, and reminders that even after loss, life still holds precious moments.


Grief and gratitude can exist together.


You can miss someone deeply while still being thankful for the people who are still here.


That’s something God has been teaching me.


Mother’s Day may look different now, but I trust that God is helping carry me through each season.


And for anyone else struggling today because of loss, please know—you are not alone.


Be gentle with yourself today.

Take your time.

Feel what you need to feel.


And remember, God is close to the brokenhearted and walks with us through every tear.


💙 “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18


Praying peace, comfort, and strength over every hurting heart today. 🙏💕

It is about carrying the heart of Jesus —a servant’s heart. It’s about letting the world see Christ in us through how we love, forgive, serve, and walk in obedience to God. Jesus taught us to love not only our neighbors, but also our enemies: “But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” — Matthew 5:44 Christ-likeness means humility—laying aside pride and choosing obedience: “Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus…” — Philippians 2:5...
