What in this life is more difficult than experiencing the loss of a loved one? Perhaps when the loved one is an infant child. Candy McVicar lost a baby in a stillborn birth and found herself questioning everything, including her own faith in God.
What loving God would give His child the desire to have a child, and then cruelly take it away from her?
It's not an unfair question, but through asking this question, and wrestling with God, Candy was led down a path of understanding the nature of grief, hearing stories of people who have suffered tremendous loss, and ultimately how God uses tragedy for His perfect purposes.
