Grief Resources


Pain is unavoidable. Recovery starts the moment we choose to take our first steps  toward wholeness and lean into the painful emotions. 

Grief is a journey or a passage. As much as we desire to 'go around' the pain involved in dealing with our grief, the only way to the other side of healing is to go through the valley of grief.  God heals in the process and will not allow your pain to be wasted. 

Below are some resources for various types of grief. Remember, you are never alone and you will make it through.

NOTHING IS WASTED 

"Nothing is Wasted Ministries exists to help you navigate your trauma, tragedies, and major life transitions and find purpose in your pain. We do this by providing content that inspires, community that encourages, and coaching that empowers you to walk through your valley well and come out on the other side equipped with a renewed sense of meaning and purpose. No matter what life may throw at you, God does not waste an ounce of your pain, and we’d love to help you discover purpose in the midst of it. "

*Nothing is Wasted is filled with content that will guide you in your walk through pain. There are podcasts, community groups and personal coaching through the Pain to Purpose Course.  I am involved in this ministry as a Certified Coach. Please reach out to me if you would like more information.

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...

Word Filled Wednesday – Act Justly

He has shown you, O man, what is good;       And what does the LORD require of you                But to do justly, To love mercy,       And to walk humbly with your God?    Micah 6:8 Sometimes we struggle so hard with the question “What does God want us to do and be?”  This verse is a simple yet powerful reminder of some simple things that God requires of us.  Act and do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before God.  There are numerous opportunities each day to do justly, to do the right thing or to make the right choice.  We love mercy when we show kindness or mercy oftentimes to those who do not deserve it.  Walking humbly before God is acknowledging He alone is God.  He is the I AM – no one else is.  When we give Him the glory He is worthy of, it will humble our heart before Him....
