Find Hope Through Grief Management
When Overcoming Your Grief Seems Impossible…
The message of “If It Be Thy Will” is that there is hope and there is a way to make it through! One can find faith, peace and happiness even after the loss of a loved one.
“If It Be Thy Will” shares the inspirational account of Shaun Bills and his multiple experiences with death, grief and healing. This book relates the events surrounding the deaths of three of his younger siblings Jeffrey, Emilee, Jeremy, the suicide of his friend Darrell and the nearly fatal shooting of his nephew Philip.
This touching story demonstrates that with God’s assistance, tragedies can be turned into triumphs and one can move forward after the loss of a loved one to have a happy and fulfilling life. It beautifully illustrates that even though we may not be able to choose the events which happen to us, such as the death of a loved one, we can choose how we let those events affect us.”
Just as each person is unique, so are the circumstances of our deaths. There is, however, a common thread that touches every member of the family of Adam: the experience of bereavement. Regardless of the conditions, someone somewhere mourns the loss of a living soul. Whether the passing is expected or sudden, there is a grieving process.
To those who read these words and have suffered a loss let me first offer my sympathies and condolences on your behalf. I can relate to the roller coaster of emotions that you are on, and I appreciate the pain you are feeling. Next, I offer my encouragement and support. Though you may feel like you are going crazy and that there is no relief in sight, there is a way to make it through what you are facing. The feelings of anger, guilt, physical sickness, and immense sadness are normal emotions and all a part of a process. I hope that these words will be of comfort and inspiration to you.
There have been many books written about grief that give great insight into coping with the loss of a loved one. To me, the most meaningful are the personal experiences of those who have faced grief and found a way to move forward in their lives while honoring the memory of those who are now gone.
In sharing the experiences of my family and myself, my prayer is that our story might lift others and ease their burdens. My desire is that others may find hope and comfort in knowing that there is a way to endure the indescribable pain of losing a loved one. Ultimately, I strive to demonstrate that peace, happiness, and even gratitude can be found. Though I share these words as the oldest brother, I attempt to convey the emotions and experience of my family as a whole.” Read more excerpts from the book >
