When faced with the excruciating, overwhelming pain of losing her beloved husband to a sudden heart attack, the author is surprised by joy that bubbled up through the grief as she heard other people, many whom she had never met, recount what this good, quiet man had meant to them. This book recounts her journey through the valley of the shadow of death and the principles that helped her to take hold of that bubble of joy and continue to breath in the tsunami of grief that had turned her world upside down. It is not wallowing in the pain but rising to the surface and finding the grace of God is indeed sufficient. You will find practical help for walking through the painful grief-filled days and principles of grace and gratitude to help move forward. There is hope for overcoming regret and dread, the enemies of joy; for facing the danger of numbness that often follows great loss; and for avoiding the poison of bitterness. Ultimately this is a journey to hope as the author realizes who she is, now that she is no longer a wife, a part of a couple, a part of "we." She learns that as a beloved daughter of God, life and joy is hers to embrace.
