I was asked recently-how have I come to have an optimistic perspective on life again? After going through a tragedy, how can I now see light and allow myself to be happy? How can I still see good in the world?
I've had certain things come to mind over and over again throughout my own journey of learning to deal with grief and navigate through a tragedy with Jesus there, and a big one is that-our circumstances don't get to dictate God's character.
In this book, I share some of my own story, and more about how you can navigate through dealing with grief and tragedy with Jesus there with you in the fire. You'll discover:
That God is always goodWhy distraction is not helpfulHow feeling pain is connected with feeling joyHow crucial it is to reach out and ask for helpThat you can hope againHow fear is the enemy of hopeThe importance of many small choicesThat you can't just depend on time to get you through itHow to be intentional in your reflection on the pastWhat it means to accept healingThat we are "Blessed to be a Blessing"
