A Heart Held Together | Trusting God When Grace Is All You Have Left
What do you do when the miracle you are praying for does not come the way you hoped?
In this deeply emotional episode of Becoming the Oak – Rooted in Christ, I sit down with Tracy Van Horn as she shares the story of her granddaughter, Cora, who was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS). What began as a devastating pregnancy diagnosis became a sacred journey of faith, heartbreak, surrender, and eternal perspective.
Together, we talk about what it means to truly be still, believe, and become while walking through grief and uncertainty. Tracy vulnerably shares how scripture study, prayer, and learning to trust Jesus Christ helped carry her family through one of the hardest seasons of their lives.
This episode is for anyone struggling to trust God in suffering, waiting for answers, grieving loss, or trying to find peace when life feels unbearably heavy.
Episode Highlights
- What “Be Still, Believe, Become” really means
- Receiving a devastating fetal diagnosis during pregnancy
- Supporting loved ones through trauma and grief
- Learning to trust God when prayers feel unanswered
- Finding peace through an eternal perspective
- How Jesus Christ heals broken hearts
- Recognizing God’s tender mercies in suffering
- The role of prayer, scripture study, and surrender during trials
- Why stillness matters when life feels chaotic
- Hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ
- Faith does not remove grief, but it anchors us through it
- God can hold together the hearts that feel completely broken
- We are allowed to honestly tell God the desires of our hearts
- Peace often comes through surrender, not control
- Eternal perspective changes the way we experience suffering
“Cora was born with half a heart, but maybe she was born with a perfect heart. Maybe it’s our hearts that needed healing.”
