When Goodbye Becomes Hello

A Memoir of Grief Redeemed by the Heart of God

When Goodbye Becomes Hello is the story of what happens when a mother’s grief meets the tender heart of God.

You could say this is another story of child loss, and, in a way, you would be right. But it is oh, so much more than that. 

It is a story of relationships, both the building and the severing of them, with blessings popping up in the most unlikely places.

Above all, it is a story of love and proof that it is true…grief can be redeemed.

No matter what your pain may be, I hope my story will inspire you to seek comfort in the Father’s arms. I pray that you will be challenged to accept the adversity He has allowed into your life and receive the relationship He offers. I want to encourage you to trust that your greatest difficulty will be the bedrock for your ultimate good. 

And one day you may be surprised to discover that your relationship with him is more beautiful than ever because God’s greatest blessings are often born out of our deepest pain. He alone can turn a sad goodbye into a beautiful hello.

Your worst nightmare can result in your greatest blessings.
