I lost my daughter 8 years ago and my oldest son Jan.29th of this year. I have one surviving child. I can't stop being angry at the world! People try to be nice to me and I feel as though I don't deserve it. Does anyone else experience these feelings?
Dear Thomas, let people be nice to you. None of us deserve the good things we receive, but God keeps sending them because He loves us and cares about us. You need to accept any good or nice things people try to do for you, without arguing with yourself about how deserving you are, because this is what you need right now. You need all the support you can get. And don't forget to be nice and kind to yourself. Build yourself up instead of tearing yourself down. Sometimes you will find that you are the only one doing this, so keep on a positive outlook as much as you can. Your feelings are normal. We don't all experience the same feelings or in the same way, but it sometimes makes us feel like we are crazy. You are not. Hold onto God with all or your might. If you don't know God, reach out to Him, talk to Him, because He understands like no one else can. And He will be your source of strength, when you can't find any of your own. He loves you and cares about you. Jesus suffered great pain and knows what it can do to someone. We love you and care about you. Chris
