When God Could’ve but He Didn’tChikamu

Where to Start

My husband and I lost our first child hours after delivery. We wanted to go away somewhere far and just “watch the storm pass.” But the healing did not come from just watching the storm pass from afar, but by hitting it head-on in the quietness of our room, through honest conversations, in crying and praying together.

When you’re going through a difficult time, such as the loss of a loved one, or you feel like life has crumbled down and your heart is in a million pieces, there is nowhere else to begin but inside a private space where you can cry and pray uninhibitedly.

Go ahead and talk to God. Be open and honest. Don’t hold back. Yes, He has allowed things to happen, but He is listening nonetheless.
