Heart Made Whole – Turning Your Unhealed Pain Into Your Greatest Strength – Book Review
Imagine, for a moment, what your life would look like if your heart would never be broken. How different would life be if you had never suffered the heartbreak of a broken marriage, an abusive relationship, the senseless death of someone you love, the rejection and abandonment of a parent, or any of the countless scenarios that steal our joy and cause us to question the goodness and loving-kindness of God?
Christa Black Gifford is no stranger to this type of heartbreak. On March 5, 2014, her heart shattered into a million pieces when her baby girl, Goldie, died in her arms.
In Heart Made Whole – Turning Your Unhealed Pain Into Your Greatest Strength, Christa takes us on a healing journey from the throes of pain and trauma right into the loving, healing hands of God the Father.
Christa says that “in the past, when my heart would break, it would always end up breaking my life because I didn’t know what to do with the pain, so I would try to numb it with substances, or with food, or I’d get really busy and ignore it…”
Then she learned a better way to care for herself – a way to nurture and love herself, just as if she were a bomb victim. In Heart Made Whole, she shares what she’s learned and helps us walk out of the darkness and into the light, into a place of strength, healing and wholeness.
Heart Made Whole is a beautifully written book that is essential reading for anyone who is dealing with unhealed pain and trauma in their lives and wants to heal and live with joy.
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
