People often look at those who keep going through unimaginable loss and call them strong. But what if the strongest-looking person in the room is actually fighting a private battle no one can see?

In this deeply personal episode of Unmasked by Grace, Donna shares her journey through grief after the loss of her husband, the loneliness that followed, and the painful realization that the life preserver she was waiting for from others was never meant to come.

For years, she believed strength meant pushing through, holding it together, and never letting anyone see the cracks. But through heartbreak, exhaustion, and moments when simply surviving felt impossible, God revealed a life-changing truth: people can support us, but only God can sustain us.

If you’ve ever felt abandoned, unseen, overwhelmed by grief, or disappointed that others didn’t recognize your pain, this episode is for you.

Join us as we explore what true strength really looks like, why people cannot be our source, and how God’s hand continues to hold us—even when we feel like we’re drowning.

Because sometimes the greatest miracle isn’t that the storm ends.

It’s discovering that God never left the water.

Scripture: Isaiah 41:10“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”
