Even Broken Can Be Beautiful

<p>No human language possesses adequate words to describe what it feels like to watch as life slowly leaves your newborn baby. I have never felt so palpably and sickeningly helpless in my entire life. I was strong like wet tissue paper is strong. The moment felt like a horrible dream . . . except this bad dream was my reality.</p><p>How can a good God let babies die? Does He really have my best in mind? Will He ever heal my broken heart? The Bible tells us that God is good and that everything He does is good. But what about when the pain of this life bristles against that definition of God's undeniable goodness? It is in those times when the deepest questions of our souls emerge.</p><p>After learning that her unborn daughter would not be able to survive outside of the womb author Sarah Rieke was pressed face-to-face with these difficult questions. Three years later following the fatal diagnosis for her unborn son Sarah was once again forced to reconcile God's goodness against the brokenness of the world.</p><p><em>Even Broken Can Be Beautiful</em> is the story of the author's own personal journey to find purpose in the most difficult confusing heart-breaking moments of life. It is the story of learning to lean hard on the God who can bring good from even the most despairing situations an honest story of deep pain redeemed by the beauty of the cross of Christ. In this book you too will uncover the sacred truth that because of Christ even our most deeply broken places can be made beautiful.</p>
