How to Find God in the Middle of Devastation

Posted on by

This is a heavy question … have ever lost a family member or friend to suicide?

I have.

There’s really no words to express the depth of heartache that goes with this type of grief.

My friend Susan Mead knows this pain all to well. She lost her sister to suicide. While that could have easily paralyzed her life, Susan found God’s grace in the middle of her devastation. She wrote about this in her incredible book Dance with Jesus, From Grief to Grace.

No matter where we are in life, grief hits us from every direction. Whether it’s a bad report from the doctor, a broken relationship, a job loss, a sick child or simply being disappointed in ourselves. Grief can present itself in our everyday lives.

You might question is it really possible to experience the joy of moving from broken to blessed or from grief to grace? Find out the truth through Susan’s powerful words in her beautifully written book Dance with Jesus, From Grief to Grace!

My Broken Prayer

Posted on by

Dear God,

I’m tired. I’m hurting. How can this be happening again? Why are You allowing this pain?

I don’t want to be broken. I want to be whole. I know this is an unrealistic expectation during this lifetime, but I want to be without this ache in my soul. I don’t want another heartache.

Haven’t I been through enough in my life?

I confess God I get angry, very angry because You allow me to walk through these painful trials … yet again.

I’m sorry.

God, how can I live in constant peace in this broken place?

Is that attainable?

Truth is I’m sad … I’m devastated.

I want to fix this with my own hands, in my own strength. The only way I know how to do that is to simply lift my hands up to You with what little strength I have left in me.

Tears soak my face. Dripping on my laptop. The need to understand dissolves.

Thank you God.

I receive Your peace now. I will rest in your constant peace.
