Christ’s death and resurrection open the door for our salvation. Jesus makes “safe the way that leads on high, and [closes] the path to misery.” God not only makes us new, He drives history forward to the New Heavens and the New Earth, where there is no more sorrow. He works to pull us out of a world of death and decay.
I’m sorry you lost your baby. It’s right to grieve your miscarriage. God did not design the world to be this way.
Remember how Jesus wept at Lazarus’s tomb? He isn’t indifferent to your pain. God sees your sorrow, hears your cries, and is working to bring death to an end.
3. If you are currently grieving miscarriage, set aside time to lament, honestly bringing your pain before God as you seek to trust Him.
For more comfort regarding miscarriage, I highly recommend the book Held, edited by Abbey Wedgeworth, for mom, and the corresponding Ours, edited by Eric Schumacher, for dad.
