    263: Thinking of My Child with Joy
    Jun 4 2024
    When we first lose our child from this earth, memories bring stabbing pain, because we realize that is all we have now. We can't make new memories. We feel like we will never be able to enjoy life again, even if we have other children, a wonderful spouse, or job or ministry we loved. How […] The post 263: Thinking of My Child with Joy appeared first on GPS Hope.

    260: I Can’t See Anything Even Remotely Good
    May 14 2024
    After our child leaves this earth, most of us want to take Romans 8:28 out of our Bibles, especially when people throw that verse at us in a way that is supposed to make it all better. ("Remember, God promises to work everything out for good...") Laura has been in that place of suffocating darkness, […] The post 260: I Can’t See Anything Even Remotely Good appeared first on GPS Hope.

    259: Our Promised Miracle
    May 7 2024
    If you know Laura, you know that she feels things deeply and tears come easily to her. Somehow, she manages to hold those tears back when recording the podcast episodes... but not this time. A miracle is something only God can do, which is what we wanted (and even expected) for our children, either in […] The post 259: Our Promised Miracle appeared first on GPS Hope.

    257: Do Not Allow the Pressure of Comparing
    Apr 23 2024
    So much horrific pain and darkness comes with child loss. It doesn't matter how young or how old your child was when they left this earth. It doesn't matter if it was sudden or if it was long and drawn out. As pareavors (bereaved parents), we can bristle when others say they know how we […] The post 257: Do Not Allow the Pressure of Comparing appeared first on GPS Hope.

    256: God’s Future Plans for You
    Apr 16 2024
    After the loss of a child, there are scriptures that used to get us excited that don't make any sense now. They seem untrue and maybe even cruel. In today's episode, Laura talks about one of those verses, Jeremiah 29:11, where God tells us He has good plans for us, to give us hope and […] The post 256: God’s Future Plans for You appeared first on GPS Hope.
