Raised, Restored, Released

This is the story of how my life was radically changed forever by the loss of my mother. Grief and pain began to overtake me until God healed me and put the pieces of my broken heart back together again, as if I was never hurt in the first place. To whomever reads this, whether you've been stricken with grief of some kind or experienced great loss in your life, the enemy would have you believe you'll always feel this way. He'll make you believe that the pain will never end, but I'm living proof that isn't true. I wrote this for you, not for you to know my name, but for you to know the One who delivered and healed me. He delivered me from grief and depression so that I would be a light and a beacon of hope to you, and I must say I'm truly honored and that it is my privilege. He truly does give beauty for ashes and gladness for mourning.
