Widowhood Part 1

Mon, 08 Jun 2026 21:00:00 -0400

You are changing, evolving, adjusting, and growing. Learning to accept these changes takes time. It is a process, and with time, that process becomes progress.

The heart and mind do not quickly keep up with the drastic changes that come after loss. For me, simply learning to “be” helped me slowly find joy in each day again. Over time, those small joys began to include the new changes in my life.

Widowhood is not just about “getting through” the loss. It is about learning how to adjust to a new realm of life.

Step by step, these major changes will begin to make room for you. This lesson is Part One of a two-part lesson called Widowhood - the layers of adjustment.

In this podcast lesson, Dr Gayla will share:

Four types of days you may experience
Six areas to focus your mind and heart on

Each step will help you understand where you are, what you are feeling, and how to continue moving forward with grace, strength, and hope.

This is Not the End

Tue, 19 May 2026 16:00:00 -0400

What is the real reality after you lose a loved one? And how do I keep my faith while going through loss? 'This is Not the End' is a inspiring lesson of truth and historical records to build your faith upon. The mysteries of life and death are in another realm, but this is NOT the end!

Though loss and death can feel like the final chapter, the hope we have in Jesus reminds us that this life is not all there is. Jesus conquered death through His resurrection, breaking the power of the grave and opening the door to eternal life for all who believe in Him. What feels like goodbye on earth is, for those in Christ, just a temporary separation—not a permanent ending. Because of His victory, we can hold onto the promise that love lives on, hope remains, and a glorious reunion awaits. In our deepest sorrow, we are comforted by the truth that Jesus turned the darkest ending into the most beautiful beginning. This is a lesson to be listened to again and again!

The original song on this episode is by Dr Gayla Holley is called 'This is not the end'. Available on all music platforms. The book The Horizon is available on Amazon.

Taking a moment to pause, verify, and seek support can help protect those in grief during a time when clear thinking may feel difficult. This is a VERY important lesson to listen to.

Discover What Broken Built

Tue, 04 Mar 2025 12:00:00 -0500

It's time for a self check... often we become so focused on our broken heart, we never see what the experience actually has taught us. We can be in denial, or the ‘never agains’ decisions or the curses of retaliation, or just keep living in the bitterness of the whole wretched mess, but none of these can ever bring healing to the broken places in our lives.

People who have been through countless losses over life and who have come out on the other side with internal fortitudes, a deeper trust in God, and many creative abilities that were found inside the problems were able to do so because...??

This lesson holds a secret about those who have studied their losses, learned from them, discovered the strengths that were found even inside a broken heart. You too can find that a new and better version of self is being built behind the scenes. And it's often without our own knowledge at the time.

Replay or Replace

"And do not turn aside after empty things that cannot profit or deliver, for they are empty."

But then…. Contentment is a word too, but with a very different outcome! One of peace because I decided to let go of all my yesterdays and its people that were in my life then. Replay or Replace is a very REAL word that can set you free!

Letting Go of Yesterday

Tue, 04 Feb 2025 17:00:00 -0500

Yesterday has a powerful pull on us, and wants to keep our hearts tied to what WAS every single day. All it takes is one passing thought, and we are looking behind us again. And we don’t often pull back to ‘today’ but instead can set down and start to stew right there… by opening cans of worms that only provoke our peace. But here is a statement of trust and truth, that according to the Word of God…

The further one grows in progressive grief, the easier it can get to stay in the present, and begin to build a future ahead. But often the temptation is to tie our yesterday over to our tomorrow and when we see the gap, we cannot fathom how our lives can go on without them. This lesson will help you relate to Dr Gayla's personal experience as well as encourage you with wisdom for the 'now' place in life.

My Purified Paradigm

Tue, 29 Oct 2024 11:00:00 -0400

After the intensive phase of grief... and after the journey through progressive grief... there appears the last step to wholeness. It does not come through simply 'passing time' or how many years have passed before you cross the threshold of the next chapter of your life. But rather this comes quietly into ones life bringing the amazing results of all that you have been through. And it's life changing for those who have leaned, listened and learned how to grow. You cannot simply go through grief to reach this level, one must grow through grief to attain this place. This lesson will lift your heart and show you there is a Master Plan at work for you! Oh My!!!

Beyond the Insecurity

Wed, 23 Oct 2024 13:00:00 -0400

Beyond the Insecurity denotes two things. Beyond means … ‘to the further side of’. And Insecurity means, uncertainty or anxiety about oneself; a lack of confidence. So when I think of insecurity - it makes me ‘feel’ unsure of myself, it’s a self doubt and borders on a grey shade of fear… it’s a self fear in my opinion.

But when I put these two meanings together it becomes a clear understanding …. Go to the further side of uncertainty. Go to the further side of anxiety. Go to the further side of the lack of confidence. This lesson is SURE to provide encouragement for those days when insecurity hits!

Beyond the Grave

Tue, 03 Sep 2024 16:00:00 -0400

Who is Jesus that has called your loved one Home? Who is the Son of God with whom the saints who have passed OVER are now with. There are secrets revealed in scripture as to who Jesus is. And our grief cannot be compared to the absolute majesty of Jesus, with whom they are all with NOW.

He was beyond the control of death, and the grave had no hold on him. The natural laws of this world do not apply to him. He walks on water, he raises the dead, he opens blind eyes, and miraculously healed lepers, and cast out devils, and had the power to control the weather. He appeared in a fiery furnace in the Old Testament and shut the mouths of lions as well! He is the Blood of the Lamb and the intercessor for our souls. And he conquered death itself for mankind! Of course he is beyond the grave! Of course! And your loved one is with Him now!!!

Jesus has been in charge in every single detail of my life…. And why would I not trust him in the deaths of my loved ones? Seeing that he is beyond the grave and holds the very keys to life itself in my life. I cannot compare having my loved ones here with me, or walking arm in arm with the SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD. There is no comparison... nor should ever be named in the same sentence!

Listen and learn WHO they are with today and be comforted by truth.

Beyond the Pain

Wed, 28 Aug 2024 15:00:00 -0400

While it may be impossible to comprehend the cause or the purpose or the reason we go through unexpected losses and the unthinkable sometimes happens, we as believers can be sure that beyond the pain of our loss, and on the other side of this vail of tears, remains the completion of all things. It's something that no person, no demon, no sin, no repercussion, no disease can ever touch. It’s where men of faith who taught healing and yet were struck by sickness do live forever.

Making a decision to look beyond the pain means a step forward is being taken. Steps can only taken when a decision is made to change ones focus from what has happened, to what can happen now. I share a personal experience on this podcast...

Thu, 08 Aug 2024 20:00:00 -0400

The earth and the inhabitants therein are called ‘Man’s World’ and obviously our eternal Home is ‘God’s World’. These two different worlds view death and ‘passing away’ totally different and have a completely different focus for humanity. This is a clear view of the difference of both when it comes to understanding loss. Part 3 is an amazing lesson and it's sure to encourage every heart!

The Test of Legacy

Tue, 25 Jun 2024 10:00:00 -0400

You can safely draw a line in the sand and say, "It’s time for me to go forward in my own life and serve the Lord. I have honored my dead, I have said my meaningful goodbyes, I am ready to start a new life with Jesus. I have a purpose to do and a legacy to build. I have talents to be used greater than I have ever done before in my life. I take the brakes off of myself, I throw away my attention on yesterday and pick up my lessons in life and go help someone else in need.”
This lesson can CHANGE EVERYTHING!

www.griefguideministries.com

The SelfCare Test

Fri, 14 Jun 2024 12:00:00 -0400

Our own self care depends upon our nurturing care for 'me'. Often we have taken care of so many others, but never focused upon ourselves. And when our loved ones pass away we feel doubly empty… because we have emptied out our own wells of compassion onto them, and ignored the fact that our water level had been dropping and dropping lower and lower - till when the crisis hit, we hit bottom.

This is such a critical lesson to learn when one is struggling with daily griefs and sorrows. We are going to have to put first things first. Start at the very beginning… and that is with yourself. Not others anymore… it’s time to simply focus on YOU. Great lesson of instructions.

Step It Up .... Put Your Foot on the Gas!

Tue, 02 Apr 2024 18:00:00 -0400

Sometimes a false belief will appear and tell us, ‘if God is going to heal me, He’s going to do it.’ And we put all the responsibility upon Him to do something that relieves all of the issues, all the pain, all the grief and all the trouble to create us a new place in life. Like we don’t need to do anything, just wait for “IT” to happen. But this is the same concept as people who say God is going to fill my bank account by raining down pennies from Heaven. There is a question I need to ask.

What part do we play in our own healing? Is any of this our problem? There is PROOF and some secrets that are revealed in this lesson about how healing starts to happen. This lesson can help jumpstart us into action...

Turn Your Pain Into Power

Fri, 24 Feb 2023 10:00:00 -0500

When we talk about turning your pain into power there is a secret to be discovered here…. And it’s managed by you. Your self care is determined by you. Not the emotion that often will try to overwhelm the heart and mind day by day.
First of all, let me say that the enemy often preys on one in a weakened state of mind. He wants to kill, steal and destroy you through this loss. Often you will have thoughts that come from him if he finds an area that you have opened such as a question … "Why God? ... How could you have let this happen? How am I supposed to go on after THIS has happened to me?"

Good self care is not a selfish motive, but it is a healthy way to start processing the pain into positivity for yourself. You have the power to talk through the thought …. think it through… decide how it’s going to affect you.

Healing Habits

Life has four experiences to it every day. Essentially we have four ways to live our lives day to day. It’s not a ‘effort’ to use these tools, nor is it a chore, but it is a true gift of life each day to discover within our habits. There are new treasures to explore and find so we can learn life from every angle, take in strength from each side, and give out our own talent and strength to others in need. The secret is to have all four sides equal in distance and to be well balanced. And life is not fully complete unless we develop all four areas from within. You have a great potential within to find new capabilities and strengths that you didn’t know you possessed at one time. Learn the healing habits taught in this live lesson.

Dead People Are Running My Life

Wed, 08 Feb 2023 15:00:00 -0500

Proverbs 16:20-21
Those who listen to instruction will prosper; those who trust the Lord will be happy. The wise are known for their understanding, and instruction is appreciated if it’s well presented.

Instruction for the hour in which we have found ourselves is right here around us. Often we cannot see it, or understand that wisdom is helping us day by day to journey through our grief, but it truly is!

When we look back at history and how it has shaped each nation, in the many lands and seas... we clearly see history’s fingerprints in cities, roads, bridges, technologies, machineries and engines, planes, trains, boats, cars, buses, and a myriad of thousands of ways that our lives now run smoother, because of a past generation who worked everyday to better life for us all.

Our history books are filled with heroes and villains who chiseled their personal life stories into everyday life for us all now. Each nation has it’s role models of the past, some to the good, and some to the bad of the varied legacies of different cultures and lifestyles. Some help us to put up boundaries to protect our lives and others help us to explore the talents we discover along the way.

It's Time to Move Out of the Funeral Home

Thu, 26 Jan 2023 17:00:00 -0500

It’s Time to Move Out of the Funeral Home

And into Your Future Home

We walk the halls of memory and think about all of the past things that happened before our loved one died. The great things... some good things... the bad things... the sad things... the terrible things... the regretful things... the hard things... and how all of it has affected us. The past remains the past, unchanged in reality but often the details start to get smudgy to us. Our thoughts brings events and happenings alive again, but only in our minds. We wish to hold on to the sliding days and stop them from going past us so fast, and taking our loved one further away with each passing day.
