Synopsis

Have you recently lost your husband? Are there days when you feel so terribly alone—and that no one else could possibly understand? Author Gayle Roper understands. 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. Gayle knows a widow's pain is deep. But she also knows God's love is deeper still, and it's in His love you'll find your deepest comfort.

An important read for widows, but also for those who want to understand the intensely personal struggle being experienced by the widows they love. I will never fully understand as I'm not a widow, but I can try, and this book helped. I wish it would've been a little more "how-to" but I recognize tha......more

Not for Women Only NOT FOR WOMEN ONLY It may sound strange, but men encounter similar feelings, with a different context and different details. And I write as a man, a happily married one, a martial artist and a writer. The details here are skillfully presented and developed without pandering or self......more

Stories and scripture. The anecdotes are personal and related to other widows. Scripture points to hope and gospel truth. I overall really liked this short read.
