Shadows In My Life

Prompt: Write about shadows in your life and Jesus.

Shadows. My mother died nine weeks ago and it has been rough. I pray for help and try to find comfort. Trying to settle her estate is rough. I feel sick at times but I am doing better. I still have arthritis issues. I listened to Dr. David Jeremiah this morning and am trying to deal with things. I do have shadows and need Jesus's help to go forward.

I need to go to Church more. I used to sit in Church with Mom. I have went twice since Mom died and I feel lost. It may take time but I know Jesus's light shines on me again and I pray all the time. One day at a time. One pray at a time. I keep reminding myself God and Jesus will get me through this.
