The words “It is God’s will” become inadequate, pointless and, frankly, the cause of more pain. What they don’t know is that every way I knew Him was tested and He didn’t prove Himself.

And for those itching to weigh in on her faith in God or lack of it, compassionate silence would be a great place to begin.
