Book Cover & Preview Text
God told me it was time to accept the fact that Chris was in heaven, and he was not coming back. Wow! I had not realized, until I heard that, but yes, after almost ten years I still wanted Chris to come back, and I had not let go of him. I have beautiful, cherished memories of Chris and I will always miss him, but it is time to move forward and allow Jesus to heal me completely, so He can use me to help heal others. Ten years is a long time to grieve and mourn for something that will never be. It is not healthy, and it allows the devil to torment us. We have a very patient, loving, understanding Father God, but He also wants what is best for us. He wants us healed and whole. If we allow for that wound to stay open, the devil can continue to torment us and we stay stuck in life, never able to move forward or fulfill the plans God has for us.

About the Book
We all suffer losses as we live our lives, but nothing is more traumatic than the loss of a child. When we experience this, society tells us our marriage can’t survive, we’ll never be healed, and we’re changed forever, never to be truly happy again. In Finding the Beauty of Jesus, author Terry Osofsky communicates that marriages do survive, hearts can be healed, and although we’re changed, we can feel peace and happiness again. Healing comes from the healer, Jesus Christ. Osofsky shares her story, of losing her son after a motorcycle accident in September of 2011 and walking through emotional warfare here on earth with Jesus by her side. She tells how he carried her that first year and for many years after. There’s only one way through the valley of the shadow of death, and that’s by holding onto Jesus Christ and trusting him to carry you.
