The title of this book has been hard-won. Having gone through the deaths of two husbands within the span of eight years, all before the age of forty-six, created the need to either heavily lean into God or choose to walk away in unbelief.

Choosing to lean into God created many questions and did not allow denial or avoidance to rule the days. This book became a reality as I walked through the valley of the shadow of death and came out with a deeper understanding of God’s goodness in the valleys.

It is my prayer that when you, as the reader, wrestle with questions of pain and loss in this life, you will be able to answer yes to the question asked in Luke 18:8, “When the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”

May your faith also rise from the ashes, through the love of God, the help of others, and your faithful pressing into God’s goodness.
