Grief Quotes

They say that time in heaven is compared to 'the blink of an eye' for us on this earth. Sometimes it helps me to think of my child running ahead of me through a beautiful field of wildflowers and butterflies; so happy and completely caught up in what she is doing that when she looks behind her, I'll already be there."

We mourn because we love; we love because we are Loved. It is the Love of Christ in us that flows through us to those we love. When that flow of love is interrupted we feel as though part of us has been ripped away. This is mourning. Mourning leads to healing; healing is accomplished by the strengthening of the remaining bonds of love and the establishment of new bonds. With Christ as the source of Love, our love will again be made whole.
