The Oil of Joy for Mourning: Finding God’s purpose and hope through loss – one woman’s story

Beryl's story is really the story of an amazing God who loves us and cares for us and who makes sure that no one detail is overlooked in our lives once that life is entrusted to him.

It is a miraculous account of the restoration of a heart broken by rejection, the pain of giving up a child to adoption, the turmoil of a troubled marriage, the guilt of abortion and the shattering of her world when her husband Ken is tragically killed.

'The oil of joy for mourning' sums up an incredible journey of transformation as the grace of Jesus Christ pursues, embraces, moulds, shapes and releases another champion for his Kingdom.

A passionate missionary, intercessor, evangelist, teacher, YWAM worker and pro-life advocate, Beryl is powerfully anointed with the Holy Spirit to minister to other broken lives, the healing and freedom she has found in her Lord.

Her refreshing transparency, courage and determined faith will inspire everyone facing the deep challenges this life so often brings. It will encourage you to trust in Christ's promise that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.’ Rom.8:28

Beryl’s story epitomizes the truth that God is never more accessible to us than when we desperately need him and even actively pursues us in our pain, to reveal his loving forgiveness and healing power, to turn despair and defeat into glorious victory.
