    Comfort is the one thing you cannot get by looking for it.

    If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end:

    if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth

    only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin with and, in the end, despair.

    C. S. LEWIS, MERE CHRISTIANITY

    DEDICATION

    With profound gratitude, I dedicate this book to three of the people who have faithfully taught me the Scriptures. You planted the seeds that have blossomed into this book.

    Dr. James Walters, my Bible professor at John Brown University, my guide and companion in the fellowship of tears

    You sent me on a search for the glory of God, a journey Im still on, a destination Im still longing for. You opened my eyes to the adventure of searching the Scriptures, the gain from wrestling with its implications, the joys and sorrows of an authentic life.

    Sue Johnson, my Bible Study Fellowship teaching leader, mentor, friend, hero

    From the first day when you asked if anyone needed a miracle, your invitations and questions were always just for me and I could never get enough. The principles you gave are on every page of this book. My desire to be just like you when I grow up never fades.

    Dr. Ray Ortlund Jr., my pastor

    You have fed my hungry soul with the truth of Gods Word and altered my perspective from duty to delight. What a gift. I wish you had known Hope and Gabe. Someday you will.

    ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

    With gratitude to my Saturday morning One Year Book of Hope support group, who met with me every month for a year, helping me to shape the concept, reading and giving input as I wrote, talking it through with me, encouraging me when I wanted to give up, praying for me, and believing with me for the manna. Oh, how you helped me! Bonita Benefield, Sue Johnson, Wendy Martin, Jani Ortlund, Melinda Perry, Terri Petway, Angela Robbins, Susan Shafer, and Julie White, you have honored me with your time and friendship and interest in this project, and I am forever grateful. Will you keep on coming over? Ill see you on the patio and well laugh together and listen to the birds. I love you.

    Im grateful to Dr. Jim Walters for being willing to grade one more paper for me and for offering keen insights, important corrections, and valued encouragement.

    Friends who know Ive worked in publishing for many years assume that I understand grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, and all those pesky details required for communicating well, and that I should therefore be of great help to Matt with his homework. My editors at Tyndale Stephanie Voiland and Lisa Jackson know better. Thanks for all the valuable input, careful editing, and gentle nudges to do better. And thank you to Jan Long Harris and Doug Knox for coming up with the idea for this book over lunch and asking me to do it. I am privileged to have you and the rest of the Tyndale team in my corner.

    My special thanks to David and Matt for putting up with a whole year of constant conversation (and occasional whining) about the book. Your belief that I could do it, your confidence that God will use it, and your willingness to lose me to it have kept me going. The joy of living this life with you will only be surpassed when were all together as a family of five one day. Every once in a while I can almost feel it.

    INTRODUCTION

    My friend, I dont know what may be causing you pain it might be a broken relationship, a difficult diagnosis, a devastating disappointment, a death. It may stem from a sudden loss that changed everything about your life in an instant, or an ongoing situation that is wearing on you like a steady drip. It may be something that happened long ago but is still leaving its achy fingerprints on your heart, or a steady series of lesser hurts that just dont seem to heal. I want you to know that I would never presume to say that I know how you feel. I dont. Nobody can. But I do know what it is like to hurt. And I know where to find comfort when there are no words for the pain. I know because Ive been on that search too, looking for answers to my questions, hope for the future, and companionship for the journey. I cant say that Ive found all the answers. But I can say that Ive found some, and Ive chosen to embrace the Source for the answers to all the questions that taunt us in the midst of tears and keep us awake in the night.
