248: We Can Be Both Broken and Beautiful

When Laura’s daughter died, she remembers feeling so very shattered that she did not think it was possible to find all the pieces, much less have God put them all back together. But as she continued this unwanted journey, she began to see and understand that brokenness can become something beautiful. In this episode, Laura’s hope and prayer is that each listener will be able to have their own hope that it is possible to not only see beauty around them again, but to see beauty in themselves, within their brokenness.
