At some point, grief comes to us all. It evicts us from the life we knew and drops us in a strange and inhospitable land.
Grief came to Dena Douglas Hobbs after years of caring for her elderly parents. When her father died three months after her mother, she wondered how she could go on. What followed was a year-long season through exhaustion, confusion, anger, and guilt.
A ten-day tour through Scotland, the land of her forefathers, brought perspective and healing. In Lift Up Your Eyes: Thirty Days through Psalms, Scotland, and Grief. Hobbs details how experiences in her ancestral homeland helped her use the balm of faith to soothe the sadness in her soul.
In this thirty-day devotional, Psalms are woven with meditations on grief and set against the stark and beautiful backdrop of Scotland. Hobbs digs deep to offer true, thoughtful reflections and hope for those who mourn.
