As parents, saying goodbye to a child stepping into adulthood is bittersweet. But really, we all face moments of letting go—when loved ones are far away, when loss leaves us aching, or when dreams feel lonely and uncertain.

There are many reasons Mother’s Day might be a difficult day for you. Today’s post is not a practical “how-to”; instead you will find permission to grieve and a space to discover glimpses of joy in the midst of that grief.
If you are grieving during this season, know that you are not alone. Let us know how we can pray for you.
Today’s post is a “Moment of Prayer” – designed to take less than 1 minute. This prayer was originally prayed by Halee almost two weeks after the death of their son.
If you are grieving, maybe you can connect with these words – if you are not, please pray these words on behalf of a grieving person.
Sometimes the only words we can utter to God in the midst of grief is, “Help me…”
