In 2007, I began my original website, Sonshine's Haven. In 2007, it was turned into a blog and used to keep family updated on my first husband's fight with liver cancer. He passed away November of 2009. We were married for 34+ wonderful years and this journals some of that grief process I've gone through.

I have since remarried another widower, but Mike is missed dearly, and will always be a big part of my life.

At times, all of us will be called to act as witnesses to the suffering of another. We will be unable to affect the outcome physically. Words will fail us. Prayer will seem futile. And yet, the act of bearing witness to someone else's trials is a sacred sorrow that offers and astounding glimpse of eternal joy." by Ginger Garrett

"Being willing to stay with a loved one throughout their travail, can be difficult....YES! But offering yourselves as faithful companions on a dark and dreadful journey can be an unmeasured blessing." (paraphrased by me)

Jesus, My Everything

by Matt Maher

I've been looking for a reason...
I've been longing for a purpose..
I'm losing all my meaning...
I've run out of excuses.

Lord, it's hard to know you,
I don't always see your plan.
But holiness is calling me so take me as I am.

You are my everything, you are the song I sing;
I'll do anything for you.
Teach me how to pray, to live a life of grace;
I'll go anywhere with you.
Jesus, be my everything.

Lord, I get so tired of the struggle within.
I settle in complacency
and I'm weighed down in my sin.

So lead me past emotion,
'cause they change with the wind.
I want to be a true disciple
to daily choose your hand.

You are my everything, you are the song I sing;
I'll do anything for you.
Teach me how to pray, to live a life of grace;
I'll go anywhere with you.

Jesus, be my everything.
