265. How Do I Find Hope Again? Moving Past the Guilt of Child Loss (Part 4 of 4)

Does it ever feel like "hoping" is a betrayal? Like if you start to look forward to tomorrow, or even just a simple vacation, you're somehow leaving your child behind in yesterday? Friend, that is the guilt of grief, and it is a lie that can keep you paralyzed in the dark. But today, we are breaking that chain and giving you permission to hope again—not because the pain is gone, but because your anchor is fixed in a place that cannot be shaken. In this final episode of our Permission and Practice series, we are moving from the whimsical "wishes" of the world to the certain, unbreakable Kingdom Hope found in Hebrews 6:19. We'll explore how to find your footing when you feel lost in the "messy middle" and how to train your soul to look for the tiny micro-evidences that God has not forgotten your story. Inside this conversation, you'll discover…

• Why "Kingdom Hope" is a certainty and a person, not a "maybe" or a change in your circumstances.
• The beautiful truth of the "Inner Sanctuary" and how your hope is tethered to the very place where your child is already waiting.
• How to shift your perspective on sunrises and sunsets so they become a countdown to reunion rather than a reminder of absence.
• A simple, three-step practice to identify "Glimmers" of God's goodness even when your heart is still breaking

If you've been afraid to hope again because it feels like moving away from your child, this conversation will remind you that hope is not abandoning love—it is the anchor that allows you to carry that love forward. Press play and allow God's promises to steady your heart today.
