148: Why Can’t I Hear from God?

from All Episodes · host GPS Hope

One thing Laura hears quite often from parents after child loss is their discouragement of not hearing from God or feeling His presence in their place of deep darkness and grief. She also hears from those who have read her book When Tragedy Strikes who are frustrated because God doesn’t speak to them the way He did to her during the darkest part of her grief after her daughter died. In today’s episode, Laura shares some of her thoughts on this topic, along with praying over the listeners who are struggling in this area. Note: There is much more that Laura could have shared on this subject than would fit into one episode. Feel free to add your thoughts in the comments on the GPS Hope website or let her know if you want her to address this again in the future.   Links Mentioned in this episode: Find out more about When Tragedy Strikes: Rebuilding Your Life with Hope and Healing after the Death of Your Child.
