“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it.

“Yes, He was a Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. If you are grieving, He can feel it with you. For the lonely one—the widow or widower, the divorced—He understands what it is to be alone, to feel that a part of yourself has been literally torn away.

Jesus understands when a single parent is trying to be husband and wife, mother and father, all in one.”
