Summary

SummaryI’m Vaneetha Risner, and I’ve know the pain of losing my child, the heartbreak of an unwanted divorce, and the daily challenges of chronic illness 😢. In my deepest anger and distance from God, I begged Him for healing, restoration, for relief—yet He didn’t answer how I wanted. Then, in a conference room full of grieving mothers, His presence washed over me like a wave 🌊. He reminded me that though my “wrapping paper” of life tears, the gift beneath is Himself. Over countless sleepless nights, I learned that suffering doesn’t negate God’s goodness but reveals it in unexpected ways ✨. Now I stand transformed—trusting Him more deeply, embracing my pain as a pathway to His presence, and holding on to the hope that He is better than any gift taken away 🙌.
