While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss

218 | In the Wrestle (Part 3) with Janet Boxx


Listen Later

Welcome to the third and final installment of my conversation with Janet Boxx!  If you’ve missed the last two episodes, you’ll want to go back and listen to hear the story of her son Cole, who was stillborn in 1992, and the story of her daughters Bethany and Katie, who were killed in a violent car collision in 2013.  Today Janet shares more of the wisdom she’s gained through her wrestle with grief over the past 32 years, and I believe you’ll be blessed by listening in.

Here is the full text of the poem referred to in this episode:  

He Maketh No Mistake

by A. M. Overton

My Father's way may twist and turn,
My heart may throb and ache,
But in my soul I'm glad I know,
He maketh no mistake.

My cherished plans may go astray,
My hopes may fade away,
But still I'll trust my Lord to lead
For He doth know the way.

Though night be dark and it may seem
That day will never break;
I'll pin my faith, my all in Him,
He maketh no mistake.

There's so much now I cannot see,
My eyesight's far too dim;
But come what may, I'll simply trust
And leave it all to Him.

For by and by the mist will lift
And plain it all He'll make,
Through all the way, though dark to me,
He made not one mistake.
