My heart aches with you & yours. My precious Mother entered ER for severe pain in her leg in 1984 the day before Christmas. When her Dr. did a chest x-ray he discovered a large mass on her lung. His diagnosis was metastatic lung cancer with a possible year to live with treatments! After 2 intensely painful months our best friend & supporter went to be with the Lord. Now many years later we still miss her sweet spirit. She loved & encouraged us through all the joys & sorrows of life. I was blessed to have precious last hours with her in the hospital reading funny stories she enjoyed. My comfort is in knowing she has a brand new body with no pain & she is loved by HIM. May our Heavenly Father comfort & strengthen each of us in the loss of our precious earthly parents. Sharon Hi Chip,

While dad's passing was the most awesome experience of my life, God knew I was feeling like an orphan on the flight back home. I was only half listening to the movie because I really wanted time to write in my journal about this extraordinary experience, but the music from the movie made me look up. It was a silly song my mom used to sing to me when I was a little girl and the movie was about a girl group that performed in the USO stops for the soldiers. What made this movie so special was the fact that my mom and dad met at the USO dances. They both loved to dance and my mom, while not in a girl group, could sing very well. God really did wrap His arms around me on that flight. He let me know in such an intimate way, that He knew exactly how I felt. By showing me some random black and white 1940's movie, I was seeing my mom and dad when they first met and listening to music my mom used to sing to me. What an incredible God we serve. By the way, I am not really sure that anyone else on the plane saw the same movie!

I tell myself that every day since jan 4th 09. My mom went home to the Lord so suddenly - my family and i were in shock for over 4 months. She was fine one day and the next day, she was gone. Our previous mother, oh how we miss her sweet love. But we thank the Lord every day, she is with Jesus. I wil pray for you - death is so tough. But we know the Lord will and does rescue us from our grief. In Christ, Karen Chip,

I am the youngest of eleven mother and I were very,very close.There are moments that I don't think that I can go on, this is so hard for me. Gods word gives me strength and knowing that there are others that have lost a love one is hurting also,if it were someone I knew Itry to think of something nice about them, that helps a lot. God gave mother to us for 94 years. He kept her in her right mind (she remember every thing and everyone) until her death.She was healthy until the last few months. It got to the point of every week in the hospital, then every other day, then one day she said that she did not want to go back to the hospital. We kept her home. As hurtful as it was it gives me a little peace knowing that I did what she wanted. As much as I would love to have her here still with us I know that she has a better home.Chip I know that God has not given me the spirit if fear. Last Christmas Mother and I had so much fun together at home in her kitchen we cooked ,played gospel christmas songs praised God togeter I can still see her in the kitchen . There is no one in the house now, but I still plan to go home for Christmas.I pray that God will strengthen me.

I am sorry to hear of your loss and having lost a mother know that no one can ever replace that love. I am recently divorced (4-27-09) from my husband of 22 years and struggle with the loss of my best friend and the only boyfriend that I have known. He is getting on with his life and is already engaged to be married. I, on the hand, continue to live with "what if's". I do not believe in divorce, but sometimes there is no other option. I have been unable to go to church. I am a Christian and am not angry with God, but just cannot stay focused and dedicated to him. Sometimes I dress for church and go there, only to get in the parking lot and turn around and leave to go back home. Deep down, I know that God is there for me and that he loves, but I just can't get there from here. I cannot afford internet so I can't listen to your program and I am at work when the radio show is on in Tyler, TX, but I have printed out this message and will read it and try to use to get back to God where I belong. I use to love listening to you and I thank you for your ministry and the Godly man that are. Chip,

We have lost all of ours and it has been the hardest thing we have ever had to bear. But God is good, even in our pain. He understands and holds us as His children and He as our Father. He bids us to climb up into His lap and let Him hold us. He cries with us and understands as no one else can. May He hold you and your family close until the grief can pass and the light of His Joy fills your hearts. Gods Blessings, Robin Chip,
