Charles, you just keep on leaning on the Lord! One of the Scripture references that helped me the most when I got into that could'a, should'a, would'a rut:



Php 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice!
Php 4:5 Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near.
Php 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
Php 4:7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Php 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.
Php 4:9 The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.



Guard your heart brother from Satan! Remember that hole in your heart will be filled with something. It is up to you to fill it with things of God! Do NOT let Satan steal it away from you. If you need to talk, just holler!


Lord please help our brother Charles to guard his heart. Come and fill his heart with Your abiding Spirit and give him rest. Comfort him and the family as they begin to get used to the "new normal". Be of courage and strengthen him that he may serve You through this tragedy. In Jesus name, Amen.

I have no words, and cannot imagine. May God bless and comfort you.

I do not have the words. I will send up some prayers for you and your family.

Final Update on this.

I received a call Friday Afternoon that the cremation was scheduled for Sunday at 9:30 am. During the planning stages it was agreed upon that my Son-In-Law and I would be in attendance for the actual cremation process.
I leave Yoakum at 5:30 yesterday morning and drive to Waco. I arrive at 8:30 at the funeral home and text my Son-In-Law that I was there. He text me back apologizing that he Could Not Do It. I replied, No Worries and I would take care of it.
AT 9:00 am I enter the funeral home and I am greeted by one of the ladies there. We talk briefly and she ask if there had been a Urn selected and I replied that I had it in my truck, which I went and retrieved. I also relayed the message that my Son-In-Law was NOT going to be in attendance. She understood and we proceeded to complete some paperwork.
My choice to attend and observe this was Strictly Personal and Selfish. My thoughts were I was there when she My Daughter Entered this World, and I WOULD be there when Her BODY Left. Knowing what I know now, I am almost second guessing my decision.
I was escorted down a hallway where I handed over her Hand-Made Urn, and I gave strict instructions that upon placing her ashes in the Urn, there was a Lock inside that needed to be attached and secured. We then went further down a hallway to the Observation Room. This is when it GOT REAL. On a table was the Box holding my daughter's corpse, all closed. I was instructed that when told to there is a key mounted to the wall that would need to be turned to start the process. I stood there staring at the box holding her, Praying like I have never prayed before. I was given the go ahead, and placed my trembling hand on the key. I Whispered to my Daughter I LOVE YOU and will see you soon. With the turn of the key, the process started and within 1 minute to door was shut and I lost it.

I do not tell you all this for sympathy, I tell you this to hopefully remind you that Life Is Short. Hold your kiddos, Love Your Kiddos and Family Members. Do not miss an opportunity to spend time with them. Work to LIVE. DON'T LIVE to Work. I wish this on NO PARENT. This is the most difficult thing I have ever done in my life.

Thank You to each and every member on here for your Support, Prayers, Condolences, and Thoughts. Having an Outlet to share what's on my mind, to vent a little, and to receive the support and brotherly love from each of you has Greatly Assisted me in getting through all of this. I know that with days to come I will have issues, but with a support system I have in place I feel like I will manage and make it through.
Thank You all. God Bless.

Thank you for sharing your grieving heart with us brother. May God use it to help others that may need the things to help them in their journey also. Prayers for you, your SIL and other family in the times ahead.

God Bless you sir and prayers sent!

Stay strong and don't let selfish actions by your ex wife cause you to stoop to her level.

You sound like a great man!

[TxMedic]

Oh no...praying for you brother.

[McClain]

So hard to hear, but so real and so wise words. Thank you for sharing, and God bless you! Prayers continued.

[SaltwaterSlick]

Oh man! I hurt so bad for your sir!! Just burying my son was bad enough... I don't think I'd have been able to even been in the room, much less turn that key!! I do pray that this brings closure and peace for you, your son-in-law and the rest of the family!


Lord, please Lord bring peace to our brother in this terrible time of loss. Comfort him with that sweet feeling of Your presence that transcends all understanding. Give him and his family peace. In the appropriate time complete the healing and restore their joy to them. Make their earthly mourning manageable and give them the Hope that is in You Lord Jesus, in Your Holy name we pray, Amen...


God bless you and your family sir.

[MUZZYSLINGR]
