Months after the shocking assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, his widow Erika Kirk says grief has not shaken her beliefs—in God, in purpose, or in politics—insisting that tragedy has only deepened her conviction rather than rewritten it.On Sunday, December 28, Erika appeared on Fox News Sunday and said she still had a positive relationship with God.”You trust in the Lord, and when you trust in the Lord, you do it, and faith is so powerful when it is lived out. God is good, and the world is evil,” she explained. “Don’t be surprised when the world acts like the world.””God is good. I have never questioned, ‘Why me?’” the mom-of-two admitted. “I always knew that my life was not just to be lived for me. We are here for such a greater purpose and Charlie and I both knew that.”Charlie was shot in the neck at an event in Utah for his Turning Point USA organisation. Erika recalled telling a higher power, “God, use me. God heal my heart. You know my pain, you know the depths of my pain. Walk through this with me. Put the people in my path that will help heal me and guide me and direct me and keep me in lockstep with your will.” “I don’t want anything outside of God’s will,” she stated. “I will not even touch it with a 10-foot pole.”Erika’s views on guns and the right to bear arms also did not shift despite suspecter shooter Tyler Robinson using one to murder her spouse.”What I’ve realized through all of this is that you can have individuals that will always resort to violence. And what I’m afraid of is that we are living in a day and age where they think violence is the solution to them not wanting to hear a different point of view,” she explained while at an event in early December.”That’s not a gun problem, that’s a human — deeply human — problem,” the star stated. “That is a soul problem, that is a mental … that is a very deeper issue.””I wouldn’t wish upon anyone what I have been through, and I support the Second Amendment as well,” Erika added.Erika made numerous public appearances since Charlie’s death and took over as CEO of his organisation, with some people accusing her of being too happy to soak up the spotlight.The Republican subtly addressed the gossip of people calling her a grifter, demanding people “stop” making hurtful accusations.
