The Journey Through Grief As Told In Widowed Dreams

Widowed Dreams
By: Helen McManus

Helen McManus shares her story of grief in this dynamic book entitled Widowed Dreams.

Written through tears as she shares from her heart reliving the loss of her dear spouse. It was a sudden loss and one that many will be able to relate too. The readers will be able to connect with Helen through the beautiful pages of poetry she shares with her readers.

Through sharing this story the author knows that God will get the glory and her readers will also find healing in their own lives also. You will see that this journey through grief is not appealing and you will certainly wonder why is there so much pain just as Helen felt as she releases her hurts through poetry many, many sleepless nights.

Line after line we find Healing Rain as Helen cries out Oh Lord please heal! The reader will also find comfort in the memories the writer shares with her readers as they flow with her through the land of tears. The author shares with her readers poems describing the different stages of sorrow she experienced. The grieving, the coping and finally the healing.

In “Widowed Dreams ” we see a young woman now left with so many fears as she faces her day by day activities. She reaches out to her audience as she picks up the pieces and begins to live her life again. This time not as a married woman but a widow. Step by step through the pages of the book the author carries her readers on this journey.

So many questions this young lady had to face and endure as she journeyed through this new season in her life. One that was not invited but suddenly showed up as an uninvited guest. Her world was now shattered but she knew she had an undying love and with the help of the Lord and her dear friends she would make it through. It was not easy for this author but I noticed she certainly had a strong support system of friends and family to help her each step of the way.

Her book shares beautiful graphics and encouraging responses from her cries by her dear friend J. Elwood Davis. This certainly is a must and great healing tool for anyone suffering a loss.
I truly, truly, enjoyed this book form beginning to end. But beware..keep a box of tissues close by.
