047 | When God Calls Your Name: A Widow's Story of Faith, Grief, and God's Unfailing Presence

Hey, friend!

I'm so excited to bring this powerful conversation with my friend from childhood, Lisa Bosse. Her faith journey took her through the heartbreaking loss of not one but two husbands. In this deeply moving episode of God's Power Stories, Lisa shares how God's presence sustained her through these events of sudden grief and unexpected loss.   Lisa opens up about losing her first husband Brent to Stage IV Melanoma after just 84 days. She found love again with John, only to suddenly lose him to a heart attack on Mother's Day 2023. Through tears and triumph, she reveals how God's promise, "I am with you and will never leave you," became her anchor through the storm.   You'll be encouraged by:

• God's perfect timing, even in tragedy.
• Finding hope and purpose after devastating loss.
• The difference between being lonely and being alone.
• Practical insights on grieving with faith.
• How to "unpack" memories and move forward, without wasting God's gifts.
• The power of resting in God's presence rather than striving in our own efforts

Whether you're walking through grief, supporting someone who is, or simply looking for a reminder of God's unfailing love, Lisa's story will inspire you to trust God's plan even when life doesn't go as you had expected or hoped.   Lisa is in the beginning stages of writing a grief devotional. She'll also be featured soon in an anthology titled See Him in Every Season. She continues to find joy in the Smoky Mountains with family, along with the assurance that God never wastes anything, not even our deepest pain.

May you hear God calling your name today, my friend.

Always, Anna
