"Before me stood my son, I knew him instantly." In heaven we will know as we are known. He was dressed all in white, but not a white like we have here on Earth.... "This white was so bright and shinning, it was like light itself. His hair was kind of golden colored with a slight curl to it, he had a crown of what looked to be gold on his head and I was so glad." This book is the result of three visions of my son Samuel growing up in Heaven. It is my hope and prayer that the heaven I have seen and the comfort it brings be passed on to others who have lost a child in this world.

"Write that book. Love God and Isabelle." Amy Lyon took her orders seriously, and in this transformative memoir, the author takes listeners on a gut-level journey as she shuffles (less than perfectly) through postpartum depression, the tragedy of losing an infant, and intense anger toward God - all while asking the question that plagues so many of us: What on earth am I here for? In time, she proves that - buried beneath the thick layers of sorrow - hope and joy can exist...even if you refuse to believe.

The faces of grief are as varied as the different people involved. Each grief is unique and personal to that individual. Yet, given that, there are ways we can help others walk through this journey to new life. All of us experience grief at different times throughout our life. We grieve because we have loved. Robertson's book helps family members deal with losses in their life.

Grief isn't on our radar until we're in the midst of it. You don't wake up one morning expecting someone so young and full of energy, someone you love and care about so much...to die. But then there it is. The fierce, dark, and consuming storm. Not just the kind that rains. The kind that tears and uproots. We will all have to face one at some time in our lives.

Losses send a woman's soul into its darkest winter. Maria has cared for her very ill mother for many years. Her burdens are heavy, causing a sadness bordering on darkness. When she discovers her historic barn is now home to a mother cat and kittens, she feels lighter than she has in years. As the kittens grow, they teach her as only animals can do.

All three books address losing a loved one, from planning a funeral through to processing the stages of grief: loss and grief; the grieving process; bereavement and grief support; overcoming grief; coping with grief and death. This compendium audiobook of three manuscripts combined into one audiobook provides great value under any circumstance - planning and thinking ahead, dealing with terminal illness, coming to terms with death, and this audiobook can be a good source of reference at any time.

This compendium can be given as a gift for anyone in need of information concerning funeral planning or the stages of grief and bereavement when coping with any type of loss. No one should live in a painful, draining and negative state. An unhappy mindset and attitude to life after a loss can only lead to a downward spiral and possibly depression. Coping with grief in a healthy way will enable you to slowly but surely get your life back into a positive light.

Life doesn't always work out the way we planned. Things happen that we have no control over, and circumstances seem overwhelming. I never thought I'd marry an abusive man - a man whose mental demons turned him into two different people. I never imagined being a widow at the age of 38. I never dreamed that one decision could so profoundly change my life and my viewpoint of mental illness. I didn't know how much I still had to learn about myself.

Get Through the Bad Days When Coping with the Loss of a Loved One provides great value with four books in one.

When we are lost in the storms of grief, only God can pierce the darkness. How can a broken, bewildered woman who lost her sister, a brilliant PhD nurse, to suicide, her youngest son to respiratory distress caused by an accidental drug-alcohol interaction, on the night of her brother-in-law's memorial service, her sister-in-law to cancer, four years to the day after her son's death, want to get out of bed and live - out loud and in color? Simple. God revealed Himself to her and breathed life back into every nook and cranny of her very being.

Most people have a skewed vision of what Heaven is. They tend to picture angels floating around, some having harps and some having bows and arrows, but none of them actually having a life. To many people, Heaven sounds like a boring place. Earth seems to be exciting with new discoveries and adventures every day. However, the kingdom of God is much more exciting and glorious than anything the Earth could ever produce. The colors there are beyond the natural spectrum and there are inexpressible sounds.

Many of us in the body of Christ are living below our privileges as sons and daughters of God. We yearn for more in our experience with him but don't know what's missing. In A Widow's Might, Judy Knox reveals the missing element and explains how to get it. Losing her husband due to complications following heart surgery could have been devastating. Instead, Judy's 10 weeks with him in the hospital ICU became a turning point, where she turned from her own strength to God's.

Out of the immense moral darkness of the Judges period comes a story of romance, redemption, and hope. The tale of Ruth has inspired countless generations. But Ruth isn't the star in this romantic drama; center stage belongs to God and his providence. Naomi and Ruth traveled the Bethlehem road - one of famine, abandonment, grief, and loss - unaware that the Lord had gone before them to redeem their heartache.

Premillennialism seems to be the dominant view of most religious groups today. The Bible does not support the idea. I have not tried to deal with this subject extensively, but hopefully I have introduced some material that will prompt further study by the listener. Heaven is our ultimate goal. By God's grace and mercy, we hope to be there throughout eternity along with every person who listens to this book with a Bible in their hand.

I believe every experience we go through in life is to prepare us for what's to come in our lives - to teach us the life lessons we need to know so we can be best prepared to handle our ultimate test, somewhere in the future. I believe our lives are an accumulation of life lessons that can only be learned by personal experience, to be completely understood.

Life can become challenging, and obtaining joy feels nearly impossible at times. However, what if I told you that you can experience a life of joy forever? Would you believe me? Probably not, but it's true. I personally know and have experienced both ends of life, which I'll share with you in detail throughout this audiobook.

This is the second book in Rev. Dr. Wiley's "Am I?" series. In this volume the focus is on heaven. The Rev. Dr. Wiley presents biblical definitions of the three heavens, two of which we can see with our own eyes. He then proceeds to help Christians understand how they might be certain of their final destination. Then, of course, if that final destination isn't the one they hoped for, he simply gives biblical standards for how one can assure an eternal place in heaven.

Catholic recording artist and popular blogger Susan Bailey reveals in this personal and moving narrative how several major losses helped her rediscover creativity and faith. Filled with powerful insights on the presence and action of grace - in the Mass and sacraments, in nature, in grief and even through the life and works of Louisa May Alcott - River of Grace guides listeners to strengthen their faith, discover their own hidden gifts and enjoy again a joy of living.

This abridged version creates a scripture-by-scripture model that addresses a very important topic, and answers questions many of us have regarding what happens when we die. Where do we go at the time of our death?

With heart-warming reassurance, Friar Jack reminds us that God's goodness is reflected in the whole family of creation. We can be confident that our beloved animal companions will be waiting for us at the pearly gates with wagging tails, soft purrs, and enthusiastic welcomes.
