The Walk: Devotionals for Worshippers
Worship LeaderCheri Keaggy: Losing a Parent & Surviving Grief
July 25, 2022 ● 10 minShare this episode
God can walk us through anything. In Cheri Keaggy’s case it was the death of a parent. This episode makes me ask, how would I walk through a tragedy like that? Hopefully, as Cheri did, I would walk through it with scripture, prayer, and faith.
Her testimony on how God brought the right Word at the right time is an important reminder for all of us. We limit how much the Holy Spirit can speak to us if we don’t really know our Bible. In addition to comforting us during times of trials, like in Cheri’s case, she also references the importance of knowing the Word of God in times of celebration. These two emotions of joy and pain are both a blessing when they are partnered with scripture and God’s grace. For Cheri, those scriptures are also a guiding light in her songwriting process. This episode goes from grief to grace and we’re excited to share it with our worship tribe.
