released by Gilgal Publications
Meditations For the Widowed.
An article written by Mrs.
Childers' was chosen for
Bublication in the 70-page
ook.
The volume of meditations
Memorial Day Activities
is designed to helg widowed
persons deal with their loss, ac
cording to editor Judv Osgood.
“‘The authors, who range in
age from 26 to 79, don’t pre
tend to have all the answers,”
she stated. ‘“What they are
and Joe Layman, right. both of Pennville
enjoyed the day off by fishin% at James
H. “SloEpy” Floyd State Park lake.
Below, the park drew other visitors for
fishing, campi®g and other family
activities.
saying is, ‘this is what helped
me; madybe it will help l(\:‘):u too.’
Individually and collectively
they 3x:aphuize that they have
survived the loss of their mates
and the pain that accompanies
this shattering experience, and
g mfiifi;n SR Ongued
ceor! to Mrs. Osgood,
some of the stories deal with
specific problems the writers
have faced, like the need to find
work, learning to live alone,
establish]ngoa new life stirle,
how to fill tl:tdparent’e roles,
avoiding over e(rendence on
adult children and how to co?e
with a diminishing love of life.
Others concern the major emo
tions of grief: loneliness, anger
and fuilt.
“In addition to being a
book that brings comfort to
those who have lost a mate,
Meditations for the Widowed
is a primer on understanding
for anyone who wants to help
the bereaved but doesn’t know
what to do,”” Mrs. Osgood
added.
In her essay, “‘A Great Lit
tle Pretender,” Mrs. Childers
describes how she learned to
cope with the sudden death of
her husband and the loss of her
right leg in an auto accident,
both within a time span of 18
months.
“You miiht call me a coun
try philosopher because I like
to have a bumper sticker on my
car that tells the world what
I'm thinking,” Mrs. Childers
says in an excerpt from the ar
ticle. The one on it now says,
“Life got tougher, but my faith
got stronger.”
‘“After James died I played
a game of make-believe and
told myself that his death was
God’s will and that everything
was all right. I was a great lit
tle pretender who kept a stiff
upgler lié). held my chin up
hight and acted like everything
was 0.k., but I wasn’t being
honest with God or myself."”
Mrs. Childers came to
realize that she hadn’t been
completely honest with herself
or with God about her feelings
of anger over losing her
husband.
“After I admitted that to
Him, and to myself, I found
some healing in my heart that
hadn’t been there before, fur
thermore my relationship with
God im?roved and I began to
think of Him as my friend.”
Mrs. Childers’ advice to all
widowed people is, “‘Learn to
be honest and open in your
prayers, and just tell God all
Kour feelings because He
nows them anywag'. and I
might add, He understands
because He's suffered too.”
The book is available from
Gilgal Publications, P. O. Box
