What I teach in workshops is useful to most people in many areas of life and could save them money. 2000 was the last day that I would spend the with her. As I struggled with my final goodbyes, I thought about the promise that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. That did not take away my grief, but God's promise of the resurrection put a concrete floor under it. I pray to the Lord for help with my grief and now to help me reach out to help other grieving people via of sharing resources.
