The Redeemed Widow

01/26/2026

Ever feel like God is missing in action?

Grief has a way of making it feel like you’ve been abandoned—especially by the God who promised He would never leave or forsake you.

Since losing my husband, I’ve wrestled deeply with this question. In this post, I share three truths about what God’s silence does not mean—and why His quiet does not equal absence.

When grief is loud and God feels silent, it’s easy to wonder where He is. In this tender reflection, a widow shares three truths about what God’s silence does not mean—and the quiet reassurance grieving hearts need to hear.

Healing isn’t betrayal.

Moving forward doesn’t mean you’re leaving him behind.

Every widow reaches this crossroads—the place where love and faith feel like they’re pulling in opposite directions.

God still has good for your life. And the love you shared doesn’t disappear when you follow Him forward. You carry it with you.

Widow, when grief feels overwhelming, it can distort your thoughts and pull you inward.

You don’t have to believe every thought grief brings.

And you don’t have to walk this road alone.

The Redeemed Widow’s Roadmap is a proven, faith-filled plan designed to gently guide you from surviving to moving forward—with clarity, purpose, and hope.

Ever felt like this?

Like you’re being pulled in two different directions at once.

Part of you still belongs to the life you had with your husband.

And part of you knows you can’t stay there forever.

But moving forward feels scary…

Like somehow it means letting go of him—or leaving him behind.

So you feel stretched.

Caught between what was and what’s next.
Feeling like you don’t fully belong in either place.

This tension is one of the quiet struggles of widowhood.

And healing doesn’t come from choosing one side over the other.

It comes from learning how to carry your love with you into the future.

Not erasing the past.

Not staying stuck.

But honoring what he meant to you while still allowing yourself to live again.

Widowhood can leave you frozen at a crossroads— wanting healing, wanting to trust God again,
but unsure how to move forward when everything feels uncertain.

Feeling stuck doesn’t mean you’re weak or behind.

It means your heart needs guidance, not pressure.

There is a way forward—one that honors your grief, your faith,

and the life God is still gently unfolding for you.

When you’re ready, a clear and hope-filled path is waiting.

There are parts of your story you never would have chosen.

Losses that shattered your sense of safety.

Moments you survived—but still don’t understand.

Learning to trust God with those pieces is not instant.

It’s a process. One honest prayer at a time. One surrender that sometimes feels shaky, messy, even angry.

Widow—if you’ve wrestled with God, questioned Him, or felt guilty for how you really feel… you’re not broken. You’re human. And you’re not alone.

If you need gentle, faith-anchored support to help you place the broken pieces of your heart back into God’s hands—even when the answers don’t come—

Loneliness isn’t always about being alone.

For many widows, it comes from feeling alone in what you feel — misunderstood, unseen, or unable to put the depth of your grief into words.
Even when people care. Even when they’re present.

If that’s been your experience, please hear this:
there is nothing wrong with you.

Your grief is layered.
Your sorrow is real.
And the loneliness you feel makes sense.

You don’t need to rush healing.
You don’t need to explain yourself.
And you don’t need to carry this alone.

If you’re longing for Christ-centered support as you navigate grief, identity, and what life looks like now, you can learn more about The Redeemed Widows Roadmap — a 12-week journey for widows who want to move through grief with clarity and begin living again with purpose.

The weight of grief can feel crushing at times—so heavy it makes you wonder how you’ll get through another day.

That’s an understandable place to be when you’re trying to carry something as life-altering as the loss of your husband.

You’re not weak for feeling this way, and you’re not meant to figure it out on your own.

There is a way forward, even if you can’t see it yet.

Today I sat outside the Social Security office holding a death certificate—and it hit harder than I expected.

Grief doesn’t just live in your heart.

It shows up in paperwork, offices, and moments that quietly remind you of what you’ve lost.

I’m grateful for my husband and the life he worked so hard to provide. I know he’d want me to keep going.

But days like this are still hard on a broken heart.

If you’re a widow walking through moments like this, I share encouragement on my YouTube channel.

So… you made it through the holidays, widow.
How did you do—really?

For me, getting through them was hard.
But coming home afterward was hard in a different way.

When the noise faded and life slowed down,
the reality of my husband’s absence felt heavy again.

Not new pain.
Just the familiar weight of realizing—he’s still not here.

And this is something I’ve learned along my grief journey: the pain doesn’t just disappear over time. But we can change as God meets us in it.

When I first started sharing, everything felt like life without him.

I was learning how to survive the ache, the questions, the emptiness.

But as my journey has evolved, I’ve seen something else too—how God can redeem what grief has broken.

That’s why Without Him has now become The Redeemed Widow.

Not because the loss is gone…
but because God is still at work.

If you’re unsure where you are in your grief,
I created a free Broken-Heart Check-Up to help you name what your heart is carrying
and what kind of support would help right now.

You don’t have to walk this alone.
