Three weeks ago today, my son Evan stepped into eternity. I thought the days would start to feel lighter by now. They haven’t. If anything, the weight feels heavier. I don’t have this figured out. I’m stumbling through it just like so many of you. Some days I feel like a pastor who should have stronger faith or better words, but right now I’m mostly just a broken dad trying to breathe. Grief isn’t a tidy process with neat stages. It’s a daily, hourly, minute-by-minute reality that can overtake you without warning. Every memory hurts. I close my eyes and see his face, hear his laugh, remember the way he filled a room—and the tears come. I dream about him at night and wake up reaching for a reality that isn’t there anymore. Guilt tries to creep in too: Did I do enough? Say enough? Love him well enough? The questions are relentless. To those of you who have walked this road of child loss, I see you. I’m right there with you in the fog. This pain is immense because the love was immense. Grief is loving someone who’s no longer here to receive it. There is no “getting over it.” There is only learning, slowly and painfully, how to carry it. Some days you’ll feel like you’re drowning. Other days you’ll manage to put one foot in front of the other. Both are okay. God is not offended by your tears—Jesus wept too. To those who haven’t lost a child: please understand that this kind of grief is almost impossible to explain. It’s not just sadness. It’s an amputation of the heart. Comments like “He’s in a better place” or “Time heals all wounds” can land like bricks on a bruised soul, even when spoken with love. What helps most is simple presence. “I’m here. I’m praying. I’m listening if you want to talk about him.” Say his name. Let us talk about our children who are gone. It keeps their memory alive in this world. If you’re walking through this valley right now, here are a few things I’m learning (even as I stumble through them): • It’s okay to cry. Every single time. The tears honor him. • Let people help. Let them bring meals, sit in silence with you, or handle things you can’t face yet. • Speak his name. Evan. I will keep saying it. • Cling to the Lord even when you don’t feel Him. Some days my prayers are just tears and groans. That’s enough. • Be gentle with yourself. There is no timeline. The world may move on, but your heart doesn’t have to. If you’re grieving today, you’re not alone in this heavy valley. I’m still right here in it with you, not as someone who has it all together, but as a fellow traveler leaning on grace. I may not be able to respond to every message—that feels impossible right now—but please know your story matters deeply to me. We can cry, remember, pray, or just sit in it together. Evan’s life mattered. He is loved and missed beyond words. And one day, by God’s grace, we will see our children again with no more tears. Until then, we carry on with broken hearts in the hands of a God who specializes in broken things. — Pastor Greg Locke

Parenting teenagers is not for the weak. Today was a hard reminder that sometimes you can work hard, do your best, and still not get the outcome you hoped for. My daughter will be okay, and this moment does not define who she is or who she will become. As her mom, watching her hurt is harder than any disappointment of my own. Tomorrow is a new day. If you pray, say a little prayer for both of us tonight. My mama heart is really struggling with this one.

@DataRepublican 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Getting sick quickly. It’s not the actual illness I fear; it’s the viral-induced asthma. If I’m slow this week, that’s why.

This is my grand dog, Charlotte. She has been a joy to my son and daughter in law for many years. She has been in extreme pain and today they found out she has aggressive bone cancer-that treatment won’t fix. Now they face the impossible decision no pet owner wants to make- to put her to rest. Will y’all please keep them in your prayers as they go through this awful time?

Memorial Day 2026: It was May 11, 2004. I was in Fallujah, Iraq with company A & one of my dear friends was in Al Asad with company B. It was my day off. I was walking to use the pay phones & send emails & do laundry. A lieutenant pulled up on me & said “get in the humvee, we’re in blackout”. Blackout meant someone had been killed & we weren’t allowed to use the computers or phones. We gathered under a tent & were told Kyle had been killed. Most people from Alpha company didn’t know him because he was Bravo company, but I knew him. When our 1st Sgt. read his name, I felt my chest collapse. Kyle was one of the best people I’d ever met. I couldn’t even stomach it. We’d only been there for 3 months. He was going home in a flag draped casket & we were left behind to finish the mission. We didn’t get to go to his funeral. We didn’t get to say goodbye. An IED killed our friend, they sent him home, buried him & that was that. But Kyle mattered! He was amazing. He was only 21 years old. Honor him today but also, don’t ever regret getting old because so many have been denied that privilege.

I’m taking photos, printing them out, adding to a big journal and writing memories I have of her related to the object. I’m making the same for my brothers to add their memories to it. I’ll pass mine down to my kids.

My brother just called me and told me this morning when he woke up he couldn't get my sister in law to wake up. She had a massive stroke, doctors aren't sure if she will make it. Asking for prayers for her and for my brother. I was just at their house yesterday and she was ok.

@RachelKaplan88 🙏🙏🙏🙏

A man in my building who I’m friendly with just opened up to me that he has stage 4 cancer. I don’t know him that well but I hope he’ll be ok. If anyone would like to pray for him I’d really appreciate it
