This is a living testimony illustrating the passage in 1 John 3, "Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us that we should be called His children."

All I can say is, Wow...and thank you again for sharing. We also share in your grief.

Christine,
Your story , and Josh’s, continues to bless me and show me examples of Christ’s love and care. Thank you for sharing. I pray that He will continue to give you strength to follow Him.

Oh for the all encompassing precious love of God. I’m so encouraged by your story Christine. Love to you and your sweet kids.

Tears. Wow, Christine. I'm so thankful God understands and meets us in terribly raw places, ever faithful to show us His presence and connect us in community. Your step of courage and faith blessed your kids so much (and you) and, ultimately, is bringing so much honor to God. Beautiful story. I can't wait for Part 2...and 3...and... LOVE YOU ALL!

Christine, once again, I have been brought to tears by one of your posts. You are an amazing writer and you have the ability to make the reader feel as though they are standing next to you in every situation. It is a gift and you should continue to use it, perhaps even professionally. Regarding this post, it was amazing. Your children are such sweet, wonderful little humans and I just pray that all of you continue to heal. ❤️

Dear Christine, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your sweet children. Thank you for giving us a glimpse of your lives so we can continue praying for strength and joy amidst the struggles you are facing. May you continue to see God’s Hand on your lives daily.

Christine, thank you for sharing this powerful story. Your faith has always been strong as long as I have know you. I appreciate how you share your honest TRUST. Many of us struggle to trust, I needed to hear this as my own trust wavers when I don't "see" His hand working in my life. You are a strong and wise mom - a rock! Continued prayers for the Rock-Star-Mom and her very precious amazing children.

Thank you Christine for sharing your stories &life. They are so inspirational and encouraging. Even though we go through the heart wrenching times, the times i can hardly breathe, our God is there to give us all that we need to make it thru.. Praying for you and your family.

Oh sweet Christine. God always shows up! I’m heading to the funeral of my 46 year old former neighbor. Your words bing comfort. Many blessings !
