Chapter 7: Meeting Christ in Loneliness and Loss

This chapter explores meeting Christ in loneliness and loss—from isolation, grief over death, or spiritual separateness. It shares saints’ struggles, like Marie of the Incarnation’s painful separations and sacrifices, Augustine’s raw mourning, and others who found Christ in sorrow. It urges trust, prayer, surrender to God’s will, and hope of eternal reunion.
