Back to Episodes11. A Parent Is Dying: You Can’t Control God’s Timing… But You Can Do This
Description
Today’s episode is a quiet, honest conversation from a heavy place.
A close friend lost her husband this week after time in hospice, and it brings us face-to-face with something we don’t get to control… the timing of death.
***Need Help Thinking Through Your Parent’s Situation? ***
If you’re starting to step in more with your aging parent and feeling unsure what to focus on, I offer a limited number of 60-minute Parent Clarity Sessions.
This is a focused session where we can talk through your situation and help you get clear on what matters most right now, so you can feel less overwhelmed and move forward with a plan.

🎧 IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT WHAT WE CAN DO
✔️ The truth that God determines our days, even when we don’t understand it
✔️ What it actually looks like to “show up” for someone in their final days
✔️ How to support a parent, spouse, or friend with simple presence and compassion
✔️ What to do when the relationship is complicated or painful
✔️ Asking God for emotional, mental, and physical strength when you’re exhausted
✔️ How, if we let Him, we can see more of God even in grief
✔️The reminder that we walk through the valley… not alone, and not staying there
This is not about having the right words.
It’s about being there.
