Why do I have this burden to bear?

It is really easy to blame God for any hardship that comes our way. Anyone grieving knows that it is tempting to feel as though someone should be to blame for the pain you’re experiencing.

When I miscarried, I knew it was an opportunity to grow closer to God or push Him away. Sometimes we forget, Satan is nearby ready to tempt us to blame God for this pain. So I decided to take the opportunity to praise Him. I immediately wrote Coping with a Miscarriage: The Lonely Road, because I wanted to document exactly how I felt at that time and to not grieve in darkness but in His Light. {This post also has a free grieving journal for moms – printable}

The loss that never happened

Everyone’s loss looks different… Some people suffer the loss of their child later in life, some miscarry and some people grieve the child that never was. Infertility is an unseen loss that women bear.
