Many say that grieving the loss of your spouse takes time

In truth, time, in and of itself, does not heal. What does heal is:

Understanding that moving forward is not the same as "moving on."
Realizing that there is no requirement to leave your spouse in the past.
Knowing that you don't have to "get over it" but you can incorporate your loss.
Learning how to carry your grief so that it isn't a burden.
Finding your way forward in a way that honors your late spouse.

Healing is a process:

Life, Reconstructed is your guide to healing your life after loss. It applies the cutting-edge tools and techniques of life coaching to the uniquely difficult journey of the widowed. It's delivered with depth and compassion from someone who has experienced your struggle firsthand.

The is Hope:

There is a way to heal and hold on to your love. There is a next version of you -- a person you can become not in spite of your loss, but because of it.

Gratitude is a choice.

BONUS DEVOTIONAL

If we fail to chose it, by default we choose ingratitude. And once allowed into the heart, ingratitude does not come by itself, but with other seedy companions that only succeed in stealing joy.

Derived from a popular Revive Our Hearts radio series, Choosing Gratitude: Your Journey to Joy challenges and equips the reader to live a life of intention, a life based on thankfulness for the freedom Christ has provided and for the blessings of others.

By intentionally thanking God and others, bitterness and entitlement are replaced with joy and the humble realization of just how undeserving we really are.

To not choose gratitude is more costly than we usually realize. When we do choose a lifestyle of heartfelt, humble gratitude, we are mindful of the benefits received from our gracious Savior and those He has placed around us, and our joy becomes full.

Includes a bonus 30-day plan of devotional activities to help the reader on her path to joy.
