When words don't come easily, there are still ways to pray. This little book can be your entry to talking with God — with and without words — in this most difficult time. For those who have experienced a sudden and terrible loss, it is important to realize that you don’t have to do the things one normally associates with prayer to actually be connecting with God in a way that’s prayer-like. Just sit still, if you like. Grieving people often find themselves doing a lot of sitting still. Stunned. Allow yourself a time to be quiet, to answer to no one, to accomplish nothing at all. Quietness in itself is where prayerfulness begins. “In the end prayer’s essence is simply this: We need to open ourselves to God in such a way that we are capable of hearing God say to us, individually, ‘I love you!’” —Ronald Rolheiser

Unlike self-help books that appeal to the head and give rational explanations of the grief process, this prayerful new book is addressed to those who are experiencing loss as a limbo time of darkness. The author describes the feelings associated with various kinds of loss and helps grievers find words to express their own feelings. The author hopes that the book can bring healing by articulating the confusing and often ambivalent feelings that loss brings. Oden encourages readers to embrace their grief and to equally embrace the promise of God's presence that guides them through dark times to new light.The book addresses nine specific areas of human loss, including divorce, death, empty nest, loss of physical ability, loss of job or career, trauma of physical moves and relocations. Oden uses first-person narrative to capture these times of transition and struggle and offers ways for the reader to move beyond them through faith. The beautiful design and format, along with the message of hope it contains, make this book a thoughtful gift to share with friends during their time of loss.
