We hope that you will be able to find a source of comfort and healing that works best for you, and that someday you will be able to face the future with peace and hope.” I have experienced this in my own life. I recently had a miscarriage and it was really hard for me and my husband. We felt discourage and somewhat lost. I think the one thing that helped me to overcome this was knowing t
