Powerful and loving
by Lisa J. Lickel
The author shares a deeply personal journey exploring her emotional state, reaction, and vulnerability in Until Heaven. This is not a story dealing with family, but Payne’s own raw trauma as a grandparent who experienced loving a child for many months, one who lived in her home but didn’t have the chance to grow up not because of outward illness or injury, but through an unexplained tragedy that happens to babies too often.
In diary-like entries, Payne takes readers along from wordless grief to finding the ability to release some of her pain through writing. Accompanying each entry is a relevant and powerful piece of scripture that beautifully illustrates the moment in time. The scripture is a foundation, a cry, and encouragement as each mood shifts. Over the course of the journal of over two years, Payne eventually is able to recount the events leading up to the loss, and immediately follow; to examine the physical aspects of what happens at death, to a funeral, and to a special memorial garden.
The pain never really lessens; it doesn’t matter if it’s a holiday or an anniversary. The grief ebbs and flows day by day. Baby clothes or toys no longer bring joy. Even watching other family members’ toddlers together bring a little sorrow. But knowing heaven waits for a wonderful reunion bring a semblance of peace.
Practical advice and reassuring promises make up a useful end piece.
Recommended for families bereft of loved ones, young or not.
