Dear Widowed Friend, As I have traveled this path, retracing my first year's journey without Bobby, it has been quite painful, as you can probably guess. However, it has been worth traveling this road again if somehow this devotional and my widowhood experience in this first year has helped you. It is with a humble heart, that I ask God to take this devotional and use it to minister to the new widow as well as to the seasoned widow. God is beginning to restore joy in my life. Having found my new purpose in life and reaffirming the Lordship of Jesus-reaffirming my love for Him above all else-this has made for the beginning of major healing in my heart. Will the time ever come when there will be no pain for us? I don't know, because I'm still on this journey with you. At this point, there are many things that I do not know, but I do know the One who does, and his name is Jesus Christ! I pray that if you don't know this Jesus-my Savior and friend-that you would come to know Him today! Remember that I care that you hurt and I'm praying for you! Peggy Latchem Widowed 01-17-04

Life crises threaten our spiritual stability. Losing a loved one—whether or not you expect their death—is always traumatic. The trauma of adjusting to the new identity of widow while facing a multitude of questions and urgent decisions can be overwhelming. In this book of 60 meditations, Nell Noonan candidly shares her experiences in the 26 months after the death of her husband. She describes her journey in grief as packed with blessings and brokenness. Despite the low points, she managed to find God in the midst of bereavement. Noonan acknowledges that each person's grief journey is unique. "My writing is not meant to tell anyone what or how or when to do anything," Noonan says. "The devotions are only meant to be messages that I want to hold your hand, feel our pain, and hopefully we will be able to inch slowly, step-by-step into being more whole, less broken—into new, peace-filled life." This book will help widows, whether they choose to read it alone or with a group. A good resource for grief support groups, and an appropriate gift to show your concern for any woman grieving the loss of her husband.

As a recent widow herself, Gayle writes: So who am I now that there's only one place at the table...one pillow with a head dent, one damp towel after a shower. There's only one toothbrush in the holder. The seat is never left up anymore. I can still write Mrs. in front of my name, but I'm no longer in a marriage relationship. You need two people for a marriage, and there's only me. Is there only you? Then join Gayle as she draws on her emotions during the loss of her beloved husband, Chuck, and offers you a compassionate devotional to encourage you through your darkest days.
