Join us for a conversation with Kristin Hernandez about finding hope when the holidays hurt. Kristin shares from her new advent journal about how to grieve with hope through the Christmas season when you're missing a baby/ies in Heaven.
After losing five precious babies, Kristin talks about how her faith helped her through the holidays. Our topic is Advent, which in Latin means "coming" referencing the longing of our Messiah. We discuss parallels between the Jews waiting in the Old Testament for Jesus' First Coming and now in the New Testament how we are currently awaiting His Second Coming!
In this episode, we discussed:
- Experiencing grief and gratitude at the same time
- How conflicting emotions can coexist
- Why we don't need to be grateful for all things
- What is Advent and why does it point to Jesus' Second Coming?
- Why Christmas (Jesus' First Coming) gives us hope for the future
- The faithfulness of God's promises
- How the Old Testament beginning in Genesis 3 points to Jesus
- Unexpected grief on New Years and why moving on to a new year can be hard
- Do our babies need us to honor them with special traditions?
- Christmas memorial ideas in memory of our babies in Heaven
