You’re now a single parent. For whatever reason God took your spouse and you find yourself trying to be a mom and dad to kids who are also trying to find a new normal. Frankly, there will never be a normal. You’ll always miss your spouse and your kids will long for them at special life events or times when life is tough. You’re going to make mistakes. You’re going to have days where you just don’t want to try not to cry. A friend of mine who’s still going through it says simply, Trust God. He is the spouse, mother or father – He’s our all-in-all. When you lose sight of that, refocus your family. Do that with heart-felt prayer and God’s Word (Psalms are especially good).
I’m learning a new normal.
