This episode has struck a chord with many of our listeners and worth another listen. Alicia’s mum passed away shortly into Alicias start to motherhood and she helpfully unpacks the heartache she’s been experiencing. Not only does it provide solidarity for others of us who are experiencing this grief, Alicia helpfully reminds us all that this life is not it.
When life is going well, it’s easy to become distracted by the beauty and good things in this life. We have a beautiful country, beautiful children. It’s these times of suffering and when it feels like our world is in a spin that we see where we have been putting our hope in things other than God. When we see this world for what the bible says it is: dead and decaying to sin. We see the desperate need for our saviour and we fall on our knees pleading for his return.
If anyone is feeling swallowed up by grief or depression at this moment, there is always someone to help and hear you. Beyond Blue is a great resource for anyone with anxiety, depression or suicidal feelings. 1300 22 4636 or visit beyondblue.org.au.
