139: A New Year Does Not Mean You are Leaving Your Child Behind!

Going into a new year without our child can feel horrible, knowing there is nothing we can do to stop it. Join Laura as she shares what that was like for her after the death of her daughter, Becca, along with sharing some words of encouragement for those who are struggling with feeling like they are leaving their child behind as we close out 2021. Laura also prays over the listeners as they begin a new year in this “unwanted club” of child loss, and ends the episode by reading a poem she wrote a few years ago, reminding us all that someday, because of Jesus, it will all be made right.   Links Mentioned in this episode: Please consider giving a special year-end gift to keep this podcast going.
