Simultaneously, I had experienced two untimely deaths. The death of my husband, and the death of a season in my life. After 24 years of marriage, God decided that this chapter was done. It was over. And there was nothing I could do to change it.
The Widow's Oil captures the valley to triumph experience of my life as a faithful ministry leader. Through the inspiration of the bible story of the widow and her small jar of oil, I discover that you can find God's grace in the middle of disappointment.
The Widow's Oil looks at the true experience of grief in parallel to God's word. The bible mentions widows 81 times. I thought in the beginning that my world as I knew it, was beyond repair. But what I found is a new mission where I could help other women who were in mourning to co-create with God their new and next season. My recovery sets me on a new charge to inspire women believers to partner with God in recovery. In this book, I share my weaknesses, through gaining His strength and unveiling God's heart for all widows. My hope is that in reading some pages from my own experience that God will give so many others the grace to grieve. This book can be used as guide to help you navigate the choppy waters of grief and disappointment.
