Helping grieving hearts see the kindness and goodness of God
Guiding those who suffer and sorrow to Jesus
If you are grieving the death of a beloved, I am so sorry for your loss. I know words are insufficient. And I know our hearts ache so much because the love is so great.
I once read, “Grief is as individual as fingerprints or snowflakes.” I believe that to be true—our stories and pain are as unique as our healing. In my grief and loss, the eyes of my heart opened, and because of my experience with the kindness and goodness of God, I want to be here for you. I want to honor your pain and your story and to hold hope for you.
I especially want you to know...
Your tears are more than important—they're sacred. I believe God wipes each and every one and holds them precious. You and your pain are not forgotten by him. You are seen and deeply loved.
As you journey through your own grief and loss, I would be honored to come alongside. I will hold hope for you, and when you feel ready, I will guide you with light, love, and life that I know to be true.
Welcome, friend...
I’m Laurie—a fellow soul who has experienced heartbreaking grief and loss, but who also discovered even greater grace and love along the way.
