Prayer at a Time of Sudden Loss

“When we are confronted with the trauma of sudden death, our capacity to cope is dramatically diminished,” writes author Lisa Irish. “The emotional assault brings us to a place of bewilderment, where we are overwhelmed by the upheaval of our lives.”  “It is in the desperate hours of our lives when prayer pulls us to a deeper place.”  She walks the reader through these times of anguish in sections titled: Let God be God, Ask for help, Bring your authentic self, and Hold on to hope.
