Not certain if you’ve read about the life of St Angela of Foligno. She is one of my favourite saints. She lost her husband and her children being left a widow but then dedicated herself in marriage to Christ.
Thank you so much for sharing!
You’re welcome. I always like sharing my favourite saints with others. The saints were always so passionate about God and acknowledged that they were filled with a multitude of failures themselves.
I just happened upon your photo on instagram and read a little of your posts and found my way here. Just wanted to share with you my complete admiration for you and your touching story. My heart breaks for you and the darling boys who will grow up to love a dad who died too early. My prayers are with you and your family. You are a true servant of our Risen Lord.
Jay, Thank you so much for taking the time to write and to encourage us. We are SO very grateful for your prayers! What a blessing!
Hi Brittany–been a while.
Just wanted to say that I am always inspired by your faith and your boys are so lucky to have you as their mother.
Thank you so much Daniel!
I found your blog through a mutual friend, Lindsay Meadows…and I am so glad I did. You have a story, and you have a voice (in more ways than one) and how refreshing it is to see you use both for the glory of our great God. I know the story you speak of and walk through on a daily basis is hard and has been filled with suffering over the past year, but through your pain, it is so evident that you are choosing joy. Thank you for showing a watching world that Christ is worth every ounce of suffering that comes into our lives. Praying for you as you reach the one year anniversary of Patrick’s home-going.
Katy you are just so so precious! Thank you for taking the time to write me and encourage me! What a blessing you are! SO thankful for Jesus and that He never wastes a thing! To God be the glory for all He does! Thank you so very much for your prayers, they are a treasure! And I dearly love that beautiful Lindsay, she is such a gem! 🙂 Blessings to you girl! Thank you again!
Brittany, I enjoy your blog and posts immensely. I lost my wife, Renee, two years ago this month after 25 years of marriage. It is difficult even to comprehend how to approach life as a widower, especially in my forties and with two teenage girls who miss their mom. But your words are very encouraging and inspiring. Thanks very much for sharing – it makes a difference for many of us, including me. Blessings and peace to you and your boys –

Thank you for that encouragement John. I am so sorry your walking such a hard journey as well. Eternity is going to be so sweet with the Lord and our loved ones! Blessings to y’all!
Such a blessing to meet you. I’m so excited about the group WidowLife…being 48 and losing my husband of 21 1/2 years of marriage is so much harder than I ever imagined. Dealing with 3 teenagers is definitely a task that I never imagined trying to do alone. Looking forward to more encouraging meetings.
Michelle I loved meeting you! You are such a blessing! Grateful for you.
Hi Brittany
Your Instagram page showed up in my “people to look at” feed and your beautiful smile and happy face compelled me to look at your page. Although I haven’t experienced the kind of pain and loss you have, your words and faith and are so inspiring. Your advice for couples to always love and always forgive and always love God is something that is so important to not forget. I find myself getting so caught up in things even in my own relationship, which really aren’t that important and if tragedy struck, would I be able to have the kind of faith that you do. God has plans beyond what any of us can understand and yours is truly a special one. Best of luck with your beautiful family and your faith is compelling on so many levels. God bless you.
Sarah you are just so precious to take the time to write me and encourage me! So grateful for you!
Hi Brittany,
I came across your Instagram page and was drawn to the beautiful pictures of you and your boys, so I clicked on it. Little did I know I would spend a portion of my day at work with my office door closed, tears down my face, reading all of your incredible posts. Although I am incapable of comprehending your unbearable grief, I want you to know that I am praying for you and wish there was something I could do or say to help you. Your family is stunningly beautiful and your children are absolutely precious – I hope to have kids just like yours some day. thank you for the gentle reminder of how precious life is. I know you don’t know me, but I am here if you ever need anything, or just someone to cry to. Keep doing what you’re doing – it IS working – and I just know you have an abundance of blessings coming your way as you live with such great expectancy.
Love,
Katie
Katie,
You are just SO precious to take the time to write me and encourage me! Thank you so much girl! You are a blessing to me and I am so grateful for you! Thank you for your prayers for our family and encouragement as we walk this hard journey. Blessings to you girl!

Dearest Brittany-
I ran across you on Instagram and was instantly hooked. We are 26 and 27, married for 3yrs, with a 2yr old and an 8mo old. My husband’s job schedule drastically changed recently and it has made life with little ones quite different…and this stressed-out Mommy has been taking it out on her man. Reading your posts has stopped me in my tracks. Your husband looked so much like mine – he sounds so similar – and heart trouble runs in my husband’s family…it is almost scary. I firmly believe the Lord placed you in my path to remind me to start cherishing moments again with the wonderful husband He has given me! I feel so selfish writing this, speaking of my own husband while yours is in Heaven…yet, I wanted you to know that God has used you today. I have a strong feeling that your story and the sweet photos will float through my mind and stop snappy words and provoke hugs. 🙂 God has a plan!
Thank you, thank you, thank you with all my heart for embracing this road and choosing to allow God to use you through this tragedy. You are a blessing!!
Liz thank you so so much for taking the time to write me! Your comment blessed me more than you know! What an encouragement to know the Lord is using our pain for His purpose! So thankful for that! Thank you again girl
Hi, my name is Rebeca, i’m 24 years old and i’m from Costa Rica. I just read your “God’s Not Done with You Yet ” post on Sadie Robertson blog, and it touch my life in such a deep way, unlike you i’m single and my prayers are about finding the one, my husband, is amazing how you describe the great author that God is. Sometimes I feel not enough for finding the guy of my dreams, and in some occations I may think that is not goin to happen. I waited my hole life (yes, I never been in a relationship), and maybe I am a dreamer, but your words inspired me to keep hoping, keep waiting, and trusting in the power, grace and creativity of the best author of the eternity, God (I wonder how the rest of the story would be for me)…… Thank you <3
