I was outside watering, when I had the overwhelming feeling that any moment my Beloved would come striding around the corner of the house with that wonderful smile of his. The one he had just for me. The feeling was SO strong...and I waited...
And then I remembered he was gone. It was heartbreaking. I miss him so much.
There are many of us who've lost friends and family we love. Each of us wrestles with that pain, sorrow and loss every day. These words, this drawing is for you. You are not alone, dear ones. If you are lost in the depths of sorrow and despair, He is there beside you.
Happy Paint Party Friday, all you wonderful artists and beautiful people. May God bless you, dear ones, especially those of you who weep, with His joy and peace. Have a lovely weekend and thank you for dropping by.

I'm very sorry for your loss. Beautiful artwork!
So Sorry....I love Corrie Ten Boon and that quote has helped me in my losses. The painting is so meaningful and beautiful. Thanks for sharing your heart with us.
Gorgeous painting and inspirational quote Beth. I know those feelings well...you describe it perfectly and although in that moment it's such a hopeless feeling there is hope beyond it! This first year is the hardest and it will continue in waves for a while...eventually things get better.. Blessing my friend!
Hugs Giggles
