“Through a Glass Dimly”
I've been reflecting on the early stages of my grief journey. One of the hardest parts for me was constantly asking, "Why?" I remember a particularly difficult day at Peet’s. It was the beginning of winter, and the warmth inside fogged up the windows. As I sat with my oatmeal and coffee, my mind was filled with questions I couldn't answer. Looking out at the foggy glass, I felt just as clouded inside—searching for clarity I couldn't find.
In that moment, a verse came to mind: "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known." (1 Corinthians 13:12) What struck me was that even in the middle of all my questioning, God saw me. That verse—part of the chapter on Love—felt like a hug I didn’t know I needed. I realized that grief can make what once seemed clear feel blurred and uncertain. And while the original context of the verse might be different, it spoke directly to what I was feeling.
Grief is such a personal experience. I know how isolating and confusing it can be—because I've experienced it firsthand. I still feel those emotions sometimes. But I began to feel more whole when I found people who truly listened, and who allowed me to express my emotions without judgment. That kind of support has made a profound difference in my relationships and overall well-being.
As a certified Grief Recovery Specialist, I now walk alongside others who are facing loss. I’m here to listen, to support, and to help you find your way—just as others once helped me.
“I can say with absolute clarity that this program has changed me.”
