Nancy Johnson God is in our Grief: a record of His tender mercies, a promise

There are seasons of our life when the sun shines the birds sing and joy fills our hearts. Then there are those days, weeks, months and sometimes years that feel absolutely impossible. Moments where we are shattered by things were unable to control, gutted by loss. And we experience profound grief. On July 27, 2022, Paul and Nancy Johnson received a traumatizing diagnosis and a subsequent nineday hospital stay that drastically changed the course of their future. Despair, depression and devastation came home with Nancy from that hospital, packed deep within her heart. As she tried to make room for those unwelcome guests, she began taking the grief and placing it in written word on paper trying to encourage it to leave her heart. Those impressions multiplied and filled the pages and were soon joined by memories of our Saviors comfort and peace. She first wrote for herself. She wrote from the depths of her sadness, through the piercing thorns of her fears trying to rid herself of the agonizing pain. As the grief flowed out, faith and hope found room again within her heart and she wrote from the heights of joy. And then she wrote for others. In God is in our Grief, Nancy shares how the tender mercies of our Savior are over all of us, always. And how He has lovingly walked with her and cared for her through the depression, anxiety and grief she has experienced as a result of Pauls illness. | Nancy Johnson God is in our Grief: a record of His tender mercies, a promise
