My story after the loss of my 21 year old son to a terrible car accident
The Walk We Take
This blog is our walk, our way after the loss of a wonderful son, brother, & friend.
At only 21 years old our beautiful Dayton was killed in a horrible car accident and went home to be with our Heavenly Father.
Dayton Tyler Beard was a young man full of life. His love for family, friends, and our Heavenly Father surpassed many. He loved to fish, hunt, dance, mudding, horseback riding, working on cars and the Army; but his true love was others, he loved being around others, he loved helping others. That was one of the reasons he joined the Army. He had such an amazing effect on everyone he came into contact with, and that would be why he was loved by so many and will be greatly missed. It has been breathtaking as to how many people has told us he was an amazing man and how he has changed their life. This young man made an impact on this world. He was part of the 13th bravo 1st brigade 2-12FA, he loved being a soldier, son, brother, & friend.

Oh Boy, to wake up to another one of those days.
I really do wish I knew what caused me to wake up with days like today. Just that feeling of frustration & overwhelmed. But no real reason why. I have spent all morning studying the God's Word, in hopes of turning things around. I know and am very thankful that His is my strength when I am weak. His mercy is new to me every morning. He will give me courage, peace, & joy if I will just trust Him. And even though I feel that I do, there must be still a small part of me deep inside that doesn't. These are the times when we are able to see our true inner being. When we have troubled times.... I do know thankfully I have not where I use to be. I use to would worry, fret, get upset, frustrated, angry, you name it over even the smallest problems. And Oh how thankful I am that I no longer have that. I do however still have some bugs to work out apparently. However, I have an amazing God that will help me through all of them. I do believe that with all my heart, however I am human and wish it was easier; wish it was one of those "over night" things. That BOOM I was fixed. MAN, wouldn't that been great. I have heard about people who "get saved and BOOM they are a completely changed person" geesh. I have been a believer my whole life & am what I consider still a mess. But thankfully I am God's mess! It is so wonderful to know that He loves me despite my faults. And that no matter what He is here to help me.
