Scarred Hope: A Mother and Son Learn to Carry Grief and Live with Joy
Life is often like a game of cards; we're sometimes dealt a lousy hand. So, in life, it becomes a matter of what we're going to do with it. How are we going to choose to be faithful with the hand we've been dealt? We may not be able to control the outcome, but we can control how we choose to cling to hope, joy, adventure, and courage.
A scar is a healed wound. Often, we don't ever let our wounds become scars because we keep picking at them. We don't give them time to properly heal. Yet, we believe that we're at our best when our scars become stories of redemption, hope, restoration, and courage.
"As Beverly and Josh share their hearts and story through Scarred Hope, they add validity to the grief process and offer blessings to bereaved children and their families. Thank you for using your personal story and journey and providing others with the gift of hope and healing! On behalf of many, thank you!"
