Singer Copes With His Daughter's Death

Steven is doing a concert today at harvest in Riverside ca. It is going to be web cast. It will be at harvest.org. It is going to be a night of healing for all those who have lost love ones.

What a perfect father this man is. Just know she is in heaven and living a life that no one could possibly imagine. God loves our children and although she did leave this earth early, he has a reason that no one could possibly try to figure out. God bless your family you are a PERFECT dad.

Steven, I'm so sorry for the loss of your daughter. I have two daughters and I can't imagine my life without them. You are an incredible man to be able to trust in God's will and know that you will see her again in heaven. Your music is amazing and I will pray for you and your family to continue to get through this.
God Bles, Jeff

As a lifelong Christian I had always felt blessed and somehow insulated from tragedy. Bad things always seemed to happen to other people. I was suddenly challenged by the loss of 5 family members in a three year period of time when in rather quick succession I lost my only remaining grandparent, my sister, a niece and then my mom and dad. I will see them again and I know more deeply that ever before that God is good.

Peace to you, Peggy! Hang in there! Blessings!

If you ever lose your love one, please check out with any Bishop of the Mormon Church, LDS church in your area and he will explain to you how you can be united with your love one next life, life is eternal if we remain faithful, and understand the purpose of this motel life,
May God bless you.

I too join you, and many, too many, in grieving for our children. I lost my youngest son when he had just turned 25. He left a daughter, 2 1/2 that I have adopted, she is my saving grace. It has been 10 years, and she is 13. I know I will see him again, sometimes I feel his presense. I miss him terribly, it is easier now, I remember the smiles and laughter and joy and how happy he was with his daughter. They will forever be with us. Donna,God Bless

I have been recieing testimony from god, he's testing my patience right now. All my life I have raced to beat the clock always in a rush, always in a hurry, then my husband left me, and me being stay at home mother the judge wanted me to learn to be independent on myself before caring for myself and my child and learning to work, take care of a house, pay my own bills etc... so he gave temp custody to my husband, who soon after moved 640 miles away. My son was 6 when he left though it's been 4 months It does get easier.. I do not know god's plan but maybe one day I can look back and see what he has planned for me.

LMAO, you clowns really believe this chit?? How's that saying go?? Oh yes: Ignorance is bliss.

This is to much, talk about ridiculous.

Why don't you christians start to realize that there is no God or tragedies like children being kidnapped and murdered or being accidently killed would never happen.

Jerry,

If God were to control people to be perfect, that would take away our free will. Part of His love for us is giving us the ability to make our own choices. Unfortunately people don't make the right ones, which is why things like murders and kidnappings happen, but that isn't God's fault. A God who were to make us like robots, with no free will, wouldn't be a loving God in my opinion.

If god existed, why didn't he protect the little girl? Now can you answer that, sucka?

When my father passed away, I sold my lake home and moved in with my mother to take care of her in her declining years. We spent most of our time together for about seven years until she went home to be with Jesus. During that time, we developed an excellent mother-son relationship, much better than I ever thought possible. Her passing left me in deep grief for a long time. I recovered my life by getting involved in improvisational worship dancing to contemporary Christian music at a local church that promoted worship dancing.

God also led me to read a little book entitled "Did God Know" by H. Roy Elseth. Mr. Elseth wrote that book using Scripture to prove to everyone beyond the minutest doubt that God does not have absolute control of the events of our lives. Usually they are the result of our own choices, good or bad, as free moral agents. They can also be the result of the choices of others or even the result of demonic activity.

My parents died long before they should have because they smoked cigarettes for forty years, did not get proper exercise, refused to eat wisely and ignored good advice to take health promoting natural supplements. Their deaths were the inevitable result of their own unhealthy lifestyle, certainly not the will of God.

God is not the author of death. He wants all of his spiritual children to live long, healthy, happy lives because they are his dearly beloved spiritual friends and family. That poor child died for obvious reasons—she was in the wrong place at the wrong time by her own unknowing choice. God would have prevented it had he been able to do so consistent with the way he created the universe to work for the greatest and highest benefit of all sentient life in heaven and upon earth. If you decide to step in front of a moving vehicle, you will be crushed just as was she, and God would not have had any more to do with that than he had with the child’s death.

S. Chapman I got saved Nov.13th, 1988. raised in church but not raised in Christ. I met Christ thru the death of my daughter who died in my arms May 30 1985 as a result of my drug / alcohol addiction of 8 yrs. She was born severly deformed. Head 2x's the size of normal child eyes swollen shut-chest crushed- paralyzed left-side- cyst from lower part of skull to iend of her back- no rectum - all organs from lower part of her chest to top of her abdomen born outside her stomach. She held on for 5 days but died in my arms. I continued on a vinge of drugs-alcohol-volitile relationships for 3yrs after that blamed God for it all. Anyways, I gave my life to Him in my darkest days of my life and He healed me instanly of the addictions etc. I said all this to say Not only am I sure I'll see Natasha again cause God told me so but He left me an Identical twin dat loves the Lord. For over 20 yrs now I share my story in public schools- prisons - churches- baseball chapels streets- gangs and get the privilege to lead people to Christ! I realized that I knew of God but didn't know God - I believe in God but didn't believe God and His word. I met Jesus who didn't condemn me for my action but forgave me and has loved me and teach me about loving Him and others. I never knew the impact that natasha death would have to bring me and whole family and others to the Lord. Your going to another level in Him as you trust Him even when it doesn't make sense cause that's faith. He will take your scars and turn them in to stars for His glory! Remember He gave up His son for us and He uses the foolish things of this world to confound the wise to win souls for Christ! Hope we can meet someday and thanks for your years of service to God and reaching souls!

I to lost my daughter 1 day before her 20th birthday I have never had so much pain she was in a fatal car crash on her way home from her last day of school. I ask every day why,her passenger had no injury's except the mental one of seeing her best friend die...why why why...

I feel your pain, and am so sorry for your loss. I grieve for you both as I grieve for the loss of my 17 year old daughter to a car accident at 0653 am 10 August 2004. I agree with Steven in that we do get nad at GOD for taking away our baies but I do know we will be with them again when the time is right and we have done what we were put here on Earth to do. GOD bless.

We lost our daughter through cancer at 20 years old. You are so right it shakes your entire faith in everything. You never get over it and will always wonder "WHY" this happened. It is so bad when someone so young is taken away. Knowing one day I will see her again keeps me going.

My prayers go out to you. I cannot imagine your pain. Please know in your heart that there is a loving God. My faith has been rocked a few times in my life and each time I've found my way back to Him. If you are a Christian, then you know that he will never abandon you. We will never know all of the answers until we are on the other side. I will be paying for you tonight. God bless you!
