Create Good
“Everything happens for a reason...” I remember after my miscarriages, those words came tumbling out of the mouths of those I barely knew & those I dearly love. Then, shortly after my husband passed away of cancer at the age of barely-27, those words were there again. Not offering solace but screaming a question. What “reason” was good enough for this?? I couldn’t rectify that statement with what I knew or the faith I had inherited, growing up. God loves us. He can control everything. And yet... my husband died in my arms when our baby was only 9 months old. And yet... his body disintegrated in front of me, ravaged by cancer. And yet... my very worst nightmare had come true. What “reason” is good enough for loss of innocent life?? What reason is good enough for death or disease.... genocide or rape, for that matter?? A year-long quest that resulted in found truth had me reeling. Because what they said was false, but another narrative very similar was true. Not everything happens for a reason, but we can choose to partner with our Creator to create good out of ANYTHING that happens. MadeforBrave .com/Book ✨ #MadeforBraveBook
