There has been several times in my 90 years that I wanted to die. I even cried and begged to dye, When I was birthing my first born, I wanted to die because the pain was unbearable. I wanted to die when that same child died from Cancer at age22. I wanted to die when my husband of 52 yrs passed away. I am still here and still wishing that the Lord would take me, but I still know also that God is in control. There is something yet for me to learn. I will live until God says, “It’s time now my child”.

God bless you, Nan.

God bless you. Your post is beautiful and very touching.

Glad you endured. Spiritually

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? (John 11:25-26)

Psalm 103:10-14 He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us.

As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him. For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust.

Some of the most comforting verses in Scripture, IMO.
