The first Sunday after my husband went to be with the Lord, I was walking into the service when I received this from the Lord. “Never abandoned, never alone, never forsaken or on my own. Not left to handle life on my own…never abandoned, never alone,” He’s been faithful to keep His word to each of us!❤️
Yggffgggggffgggyiplkgghfbggfgfgl. B. CffzSsdrfg
Amen!
Thank you for those words are a great comfort...
Love this saying. God gave u a great poem.
MY LOSS WAS MY PRAYER WARRIOR PARTNER...MY MOTHER!! I KNOW SHE IS WITH JESUS!!!! I 'M JUST BEING SELFISH......I MISS HER SO VERY MUCH !!!!AND I CRY ALONE SOMETIMES....LONG STORY THOUGH.....PRAISE GOD FOR HIS LOVING ARMS.. AMEN!!!
I lost my Mom too on News Year Eve this past year 2021. She was so beautiful. I was with her when she took her last breath at the hospital, she was my rock for along time too. You aren't being selfish, because I thought the samething about myself. THE LORD brought revelation to me my Mom didn't want to come back. When you see JESUS in glory you want to stay. I am praying for you that JESUS bring you comfort and also purpose for this loss. That you find grace and peace
My mom was my Rock too, have been a widow for over 33 yrs, thought I would be married again by now. Have helped raise some of my grandchildren, 3 have been special needs, but I still miss my mom to sit n talk to n eat with n pray with. Being alone hasn't been easy for me, had it not been for my relationship with Jesus Christ, I don't know how others do it without him.
@@rebeccaschroeder8891 THANK YOU !!!GOD BLESS YOU AND I 'M IN AGREEMENT WITH YOU ON THIS PRAYER!!
@@marsharasberry8198 AMEN!!
@J C THANK YOU!!
Aloha my husband also graduated to Heaven. His Celebration of Life was April 9th, 2022. God Blessed this Celebration, I'm sure much smaller than yours. But 8 souls came to the Lord. : ) Bob Fitts came to my Island from the Big Island, as a special guest singer. Along with many other special singers & including a beautiful Hula. I feel blessed. Now my desire is to move on in Children's Ministry again, including visiting orphanages. Prayers for that Please! Joni & Rhonda both have been a part of my life, as they have both come to the Church my Father, Pastor Landers had Pastored.
Thank God for the Great work these ladies, have and are doing! Prayers for You all!
🕊💕 PRAYERS ❣️🙏🏼🙏🏽🙏✝️
Grief is an excellent and timely topic that networks don't seem to want to tackle. I would love to see more on this topic, as well as how to create a new financial norm after your spouse passes. Thank you and God Bless you.
I was so blessed to stumble on this program. My wonderful husband went to be with the Lord six months ago. I’ve never experienced such grief in all my life. But the Lord has sustained me & I’ve experienced Him in ways never imagined. This is a day by day journey. Thank you so much for the wisdom that was shared on this program. I’ve saved it to listen to it again. God bless all of you in your loss.
You are not alone in your journey, grief has many hands reaching for answers, for healing, for friendship of another grieving spouse, to say those words we need to hear, I understand ....I talk to Jesus, and I still talk to my wife. 5 months ago cancer then coivd to her home . Talking or texting to those who get it has helped me also . I hope this helps you....💔🙏
Lost my wife And ministry partner of 28 years a year ago tomorrow. We weren’t designed for separation And death, but for continuous relationship. Sin is the cause of that break. Thanks be to God for Jesus, coming and overcoming sin and death. I’ll see Leslie again and though not married we’ll have a deeper love and friendship than was ever possible on the earth, and that love will last forever.
21/2 years since my husband passed. It has been hard, lonely and frustrating…. So many emotions….
GOD BLESS YOU IN ALL THINGS!!!!
I pray the LORD be with you and that you remain aware of His Love despite the hell that is present on this eartg7
I lost my husband suddenly after 40 years of marriage.
Learning to live again, With half your heart in heaven has been so hard. I wished I could say I have mastered it, But I have not.
The things that we have been going through this this year, Has made it even harder.
The only way to make it is learning to lean on Jesus. Letting the Holy Spirit help you with His sweet voice keeping Telling you you're not alone.
Blessings and safety to all God's children
We lost my husband and son within 11 days of each other to covid. We all had it; I nearly passed on myself, as well as our daughter. It has been 8 months, and I can only give thanks to God and His Holy Spirit, our Comforter, for miraculously carrying my second eldest son, daughter and myself through each hard day since, through every painful second. By His Grace. By His Grace. Thank You Jesus for Your ressurection power at work in us. Amen.
GOD BLESS YOU AND HOLD YOU IN HIS LOVING ARMS...AMEN!!!
My God! So sorry. May his holy spirit keep comforting you
Thank you for your testimony of strength, in Jesus. I needed to hear these encouraging words of faith , something i have very little of. Lost my wfe to breast cancer and coivd 2/26/22. Stories like yours give us all hope where there is little to choose from. Thank you, i hurt for you too.
I lost my husband and daughter a day apart on 9/20/21 and 9/21/21. They both died of Covid.
@@melindercaudell9120 ❤🙏
I lost my Mom, on News Year Eve 2021, she died from 2 heart attacks, totally unexpected. I was pregnant with my 7th child a little girl whom I since have had. My Mom went home to be with the LORD. I recently was thinking this will be my first Mother's Day without my Mom what will I do, and the LORD brought your video to me. Scrolling through youtube and here I am watching this. Thank you beautiful sisters for sharing your stories because although I didnt loose my spouse I lost my Mom on News Years and I had to start 2022 without her, I never expirenced such a hard loss as Moms. I was with her at the hospital as she took her last breath crying out to THE LORD, praying with my head at her feet and she went home with OUR LORD. I still grieve but THE LORD has sustained me through this process.
PRAISE GOD!!!!!!
Me also Abt my mom
How beautiful this episode is! Love you ladies!
Lost my Mother and best friend 25 December 2018. I asked the good Lord to show me that she is okay. I had a dream and she was laughing and teasing me. After that I had more peace in my heart knowing she is in a good place. God bless you all.🌹
Thank you for validating my feelings and emotions as I grieve
I lost my husband of 30years last June. He was my best friend and we would watch Day star in our bedroom almost every evening.
I couldn't believe when Marcus passed. I am pretty sure that by now my husband has already told Marcus that your ministry was a blessing to us.
May the Lord fulfill all his wonderful plans for you Joni and the children.
My husband died of covid.
Thank-you Ladies I still grieve for my mother, many yrs ago
I realized that I blocked that sorrow for many yrs until I got in my 60s, didn't get to say goodbye, .it's getting better as I'm healing 😌
She would love all her grandkids and greatgrandkids , I love on them for her too...
We are not alone. 11 years ago DayStar was praying for me when my husband died. I love the Lamb family and Mr. Marcus Lamb was an admirable Man of God. I am praying for Joni and her family. Blessings to y’all.
I lost my husband in 2020 unexpectedly and i can relate to going throught the grief doing things i never thought i would do and feeling anger and just no hope ahead of me. God is carrying my sons and myself through he is our hope
HELLO!!!FROM INDIANA.... GOD BLESS EVERYONE!!!
Please pray for me and my 82-year old hubby who has bad dementia and is in a wheelchair. We have to move from our rental unit by this Saturday and i have not been able to find economical and wheelchair friendly accommodation, which is very stressful. I was wanting to give up all hope, thinking that we must be second-rate Christians and God would not show us favour or bless us. But then i realised that our traumatic circumstances ( details too lengthy to explain here) are not Him punishing but the enemy seeking to hinder and stop what was being done for God's Kingdom and His glory. I also realize that He is for me - not against me - and that He does want to help us. Time is so short though. Please pray for a miracle to come our way before Saturday. ! Thank you.
I will pray for you & your husband Chrissie! The Lord always makes a way where there seems to be no way🙌
Chrissie I pray God helped you & you & yr hysband are in suitable economical accomdation and that God is providing for every need for you both.God keep you in deep care.
GOD BLESS YOU LADIES. 💕
Ladies I am listening to you all and I lost my husband Pastor Warren Nelson Sr on August 2nd 2011 and we were married for 44 YEARS. Pastor Warren passed from this Life, to be with the LORD. WE CELEBRATE HIM BEING HOME. I KNOW THAT I WILL SEE HIM AGAIN. HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH. SENDING YOU ALL HUGS AND LOVE 💕💕💕💕💕💕 AND PRAYERS TO YOU ALL. LOVE 💕💕💕💕 YOU ALL SUE NELSON
This was great listening too. I can relate, I too lost my husband òf 26 years of marriage in July of 2020. It was hard and it's still is, but my battle cry has been asking God for daily strength as I walked through this journey of mine. God has given me strength to keep going. May God continue to bless you all.
Thank you ladies!🙏🏾
I am a little different. I was rejected by my family years ago, the grief as if a death, was debilitating. Being as this has been a continuous rejection and I am near 70, thinking how ridiculous I still struggled with that at my age. Praise God He never abandons any one of us and brings us through to Victory! Thank you ladies. Thank you posters for your encouraging posts too.
This the Second time I have watched this segment. I lost my husband 11 months ago and am thankful to Know God is carrying me through. I took care of my husband for 5 years. The last year he lived, I never left him.
I am Still learning how to be me without him and what Gods plan is for me. I am feeling like I have Nothing left inside of me. Please Pray that our Lord will reveal to me what His plan is for me.
I also lost my husband of 50 years 11 months ago. Every day, I pray and I try to stay busy. I noticed if I catch myself dwelling on him, I immediately remember he's with the Lord. I will see him again. There is still pain, but I know the Lord is with me. God bless you.
I lost my grandson unexpectedly in a car wreck, about 6 months ago, I actually went into shock at first, my mind wouldn’t process what I was being told..I fussed at God for a bit in the beginning, but one night I was laying in bed and a thought came to me… since Gods understanding is so much greater then ours and deeper then ours, then it would be wise if I trusted the greater and deeper understanding, so I made a choice right then to trust the greater and deeper understanding that God has.. I realized I am not able to comprehend the fathoms of God.. so trust was what I needed eventho I was in pain, making the choice to trust him lifted some of the pain.. it’s hard to put into words what happened that night, but the Holy Spirit is our comforter and does so unexpectedly sometimes
I cannot imagine in any way shape or form losing my grandkids. My heart goes out to you so deeply. I just pray the Lord give you peace. God-bless those little babies.
@@Myronkline thank you
Beautiful show! Lost my Pastor husband 7 years ago! Felt so blessed hearing this!
Pastor Rhonda once said, yrs ago, "you can be completely convinced of something & be completely wrong". Profound life changing truth. Many thanks peace love & joy
God said let the truth set you free.
We still love and miss brother Marcus and we will never forget him. ❤
So nice to hear you ladies share, I was one of those church of God campers in California enjoyed so much seeing and hearing Rhonda and all of you share. I married a young minister in 1979 too. We lost our marriage and ministry together in 1997. But I have been blessed with that coat of comfort from the Holy Spirit.
This spoke to me. My husband and I pastored together. He has been gone almost 1 1/2 years but it is still SO difficult. I am working as a care pastor now carrying on his legacy.
My husband of almost 40 years went home to be with the Lord November 2021. I am Still learning how to be Me without my Raymond. I think I’m okay , and then I’m Not. I Cling to my Lord for HIS comfort.
It may never stop hurting untill we are reunited, it even hurts to think on that. But Jesus is my pain taker, most of the time. Sometimes i forget that fact. I will pray for you lucia , in Jesus name.....
💟 From Germany,
Yes Joni, I was amazed at your strenght singing that beautiful song At the Sanctuary. You are a godly woman of Great Strength! We love and admire you and your entire family for showing forth God's Grace. 🌷
Thank you so much. This made me cry because my husband of 56 years died a year ago March 27th but it was so healing. Love you sisters in the Lord.❤️🧑🦳🙏
God bless you ladies! My former Pastor passed away leaving his wife. Married 62 years!
Thank you, Joni 💔❤️🩹❤️🙇🏼♀️We love you and praying for all of your family 🌟🕊🙌🏻🙌🏾🙌🏿🙌🙌🏼

God Bless you Ladies🌻🌹💐⚘💐
I know Pastor Rhonda Davis, & I knew Pastor Hank (her husband that passed away.) Pastor Hank in the past did my husband Tim's funeral & my Mother Patsy's funeral. My stepson Austin & my sister Sheri attends Church of the Harvest. I love Pastor Rhonda, she is an excellent preacher! I have been widowed 25 years. When my husband Tim had cancer, Pastor Hank came to my house to pray for him a lot. The night my husband Tim was unconscious, Pastor Hank stood by my side. My husband Tim was in the bed, emt's were working on him, and I hit my knees at the end of the bed praying to God with my hands raised. They pulled my husband in the floor next to me to work on him shocking his heart, and I continued my face up to heaven praying for my husband. I rode in the ambulance to the hospital. Pastor Hank and my mother followed behind us. At the hospital they told me Tim had passed away. Pastor Hank stood by my side. Hank went shopping with my family and myself to help pick out the funeral suit my husband would wear in his coffin. (Per my husband Tim's prior request before he passed away), he wanted Hank to pick him out the most awesome suit for him.) Hank picked it out & my husband looked so handsome in his coffin. Pastor Hank told me....that I reminded him of Rhonda Davis, because of when I hit my knees praying for my husband at the end of his hospital bed. Hank said...."if I was the person in the bed dying, I know my Rhonda, she would have done the same thing... get on her knees and pray for me...just like you did for Tim." Hank was correct, because that is exactly what Rhonda did...pray at the end of his hospital bed on her knees. I thought I would share my story, so Rhonda might see my comment. I was a young widow at age 27. I was married for 7 short years. I still experience those waves of grief. It never goes away, but I don't have them as often. I still miss and love my Tim every single day. I can still hear his laughter through my home, but it's so precious to my heart in remembrance of him. I describe my widowhood this way...."Tim and I shared a true beautiful love story that ended way too soon.) You can move forward, smile, & trust God. God will never leave your side. God is my spiritual husband now, and I couldn't do it without the Lord. His grace is sufficient and you can walk through any deep valley with God. You will have a deeper relationship with the Almighty King. Nothing can compare, I promise. My family grows tired of hearing me talk about Tim, but I will never stop. I keep him alive with memories of him in my heart. Our husbands didn't pass away, God just moved them. We will see them again ladies, and this is our joy. Blessings and hugs. God bless everyone.
My husband was a man of God, a Pastor after God’s own heart!!! He was succumb to pancreatic cancer 10 months after his diagnosis. I was his caregiver. I can truly identify with the strength God give you to care for your beloved husband. He passed on Monday night, buried on Saturday, in church on Sunday with the help and strength of the Lord. A few weeks prior to his death, he was paying a utility bill for the ministry, and expressed to me that would the last bill he would pay for the ministry unless I was to carry it on. The ministry is still striving 4 years and 8 months. He gave me his blessings to find have new love after his departure to be with the Lord, along with some warnings. I shut down the new love thought out of 42 years together, fear and trust issues. I could go on and on, I identify with so much you all have shared and may the blessings of God continue to be with you beautiful women of God!

Rhonda is so sweet and beautiful!
Condolences Pastor Ronda
Thank you for sharing your experiences and encouragement. My dad went to Heaven in December of 2020 very suddenly for us the family, because he was not sickly,neither was he ill. I have not been able to refer to him in the past tense ever since..if I have it's not more times than the number of fingers on my right hand.. But God's strength has and still is holding me and my family.. I relate to all you have shared and feel blessed to have landed on this video today. God bless you all indeed
@J C Thank you, I shall look it up🙂
Thank you so much for this I loss my husband Pastor Derek Vincent Clark last October 29, 2021. My husband I love so much and I Ministered together for years as singer and musician, Pastors this has helped me to understand the process. Thank you very much.
Wow this show helped me a lot! I lost my husband Labor Day 2018 and I can’t seem to get passed the hurt. He was a Man of God so I know he’s home but I don’t know what to do now. I feel like I have been pushed behind a trap door of grief and I’m stuck. Listening to you women on this program has helped
@J C wow I got the book and it helped me immensely! Thank you 😊
Thank you for these encouraging words and your understanding of deep pain all of us has felt with the loss of family members and friends .
YOU ARE ALL SO WONDERFUL
AND ALL OF US WHO WATCH ARE GRATEFUL FOR YOU OBEDIENCE AND LOVE OF THE LORD
THANK YOU
Thank you for all sharing..God bless you all..
Loosing a spouse seems hardest because you are one. And so close and best friends.. and we ministered in song at church for 25 years. He played piano and several instruments. I miss him on sundays the most.I've lost parents. But I've never lost a child so hard to say.
Excellent fighting tears but just excellent
All loss can be devastating....or very painful,unexplainable.....the Father,Mother,spouse,sibling...etc...and even a pet can be so painful. My grandmother used to say that your life is a book....and there are many chapters....True.Then theres the end.We want to end well with our LORD.I t can seem scary and lonely and a slew of other emotions at times.I think we must just lean on our creator and LORD Jesus to navigate us through this..One day soon ,I do believe we can/will be full of joy...and we wont have to die first to experience this great virtue of God.
God bless all of these women who have endured....and those online.May God grant you,love,joy,and peace
My husband passed six years ago..I still miss him so much. But God taking me through. He said he'd be my husband. My kids and grankids have been lot of help.
This was great to listen to all. Their wa so much encouragement thru the different stories. Thank you all. God abundantly bless you.🙏🙏🙏

The topic is very inspiring Joni, you know my husband went to prison 2016 he also was as the prodigal ,I forgive my husband but I cannot be intermit to him,how do you handle that
.
Great topic. Everyone seems a little low key on the show today. Bless y'all. And that tabletop is almost as big as Putin's table 🙂
I can empathize with these fellow widow's. Jesus walks us through the grief. It's a long journey

I struggled going to church and reading my Bible…

You need to get Karen Wheaton and her daughter for a remarkable story of answered prayer.
We have a day star where we live. What a joke. When our premee baby was born. We asked for help. Yeah right. They never even got back to us.
If someone loses a Christian family member to suicide, biblically, where did they go to !? Heaven or hell
I believe if they excepted Jesus as their Lord, that they would be in Heaven. I’ve heard many sermons saying, that ppl who commit suicide, are usually not in their right mind. And God has mercy on them.
If they belonged to Jesus on earth ,the belong to him eternally in heaven.
