Grieving Parents Sharing Hope

307: I Am So Mad at God for Taking My Child


Listen Later

This is one of the most honest and difficult topics we've ever addressed on the podcast being angry at God after the death of your child. If you've felt intense anger toward Him, or even found yourself hating God for taking your child, know that you're not alone.

You’ll also hear Laura share a deeply personal moment she had with the Lord, and reflect on how God may have chosen to bless our children in ways we don't understand yet but one day will.

I know we wanted to live out our lives here with them, but God, in His wisdom, His love, and His all-knowing power, decided to bless our child with a life of perfection before we get to experience it.
