Hope For the Broken-hearted
Thank you so much for these messages of hope! I lost my husband to brain cancer in 2017. He was just 32 years old. We met serving In outreach ministry together and he was just an absolutely magical person. He’d dance in the middle of a department store and loved Jesus with a child like faith. I received all the typical “you’re young, you can remarry” comments from well intentioned family and friends. And it hurt to be shut out of the world of married people, couples- to loose my identity as a wife. So without realizing it, I busied myself and told myself I didn’t want love again. I really struggled with my relationship with God. I kept going to church and I told myself I wasn’t angry. I don’t know what I was feeling honestly, maybe numbness. Four years later I met someone who brought feelings up that I didn’t think I’d ever feel again. I dove head over heels, telling myself surely God wouldn’t allow me to fall for the wrong person after EVERYTHING I’ve been through. The next year ended up being toxic and I was filled with anxiety and depression from a relationship that wasn’t healthy. The relationship finally ended with me feeling even more callous about love. I was finally ready to admit I was very angry with God. But it just lead to more bitterness and brokenness. I wanted to believe God would protect me. I questioned how he could be so cruel to use this as a means to get through to me. I knew i had lied to myself. I knew that God would in fact let me fall for someone and get my heart broken all over again if it led to me seeking him. But I just didn’t know how to begin the journey of healing. Davey had visited my church nearly 2 years ago and I bought a pretty “coffee table “ book to support his ministry at the time that I put in a basket without realizing what a treasure I had in my hands.I found the podcast a few weeks ago after rewatching his sermon…which led me to the website where I saw a devotional on grief for sale. I put it in my cart and thought to myself, that looks familiar…sure enough it was the very same book in my basket right under my nose!! I’m six days in and listening to so many of the wonderful podcasts. I am finally starting to feel hope in whatever God has in store for me and handing all my sorrows and dreams over to him! Thank you so much for this ministry!!

The man who has been wounded deeply has great credibility to speak on issues of pain and loss. Davey Blackburn is that man. Excellent podcast.
