    Ep. 11 - Grief, Grace, and Gratitude
    2026/06/02
    Grief, Grace and Gratitude 🎙️ FULL EPISODE SCRIPT Grief, Grace, and Gratitude INTRO Hey Ya'll. Welcome back to Grief Relief for Christian Women, where we talk about faith, healing, and all the things nobody warned us about—like how grief can turn a normal trip to H-E-B into a full-blown emotional meltdown in Isle 9. Yes, I've been there--did that! I’m your host, Patty Jackson, and today we’re diving into three little words that sound sweet enough to put on a farmhouse sign but powerful enough to change your healing journey: Grief, Grace, and Gratitude. But before we dig in, let’s start with prayer. OPENING PRAYER “Father God, we come to You today with hearts that are tender, tired, and maybe a little worn out. You see our tears, You know our pain, and You love us right through it. We ask for Your grace to steady us, Your peace to fill us, and Your mercy to remind us we don’t have to have it all together--not yesterday, today or even tomorrow. Lord, show us the little glimmers of gratitude! Bless every woman listening. Wrap her in Your comfort and remind her she’s not walking alone. In Jesus’ name, Amen.” SEGMENT 1: GRIEF — THE UNINVITED HOUSEGUEST Alright, let’s talk about grief—that uninvited houseguest who shows up unannounced, eats all your snacks, and refuses to leave. Grief is messy. Grief is sneaky. Grief shows up when you’re trying to pump gas or just minding your business, like while cooking or even watching TV. And if you’re anything like me, you may have thought, “Okay, surely this is supposed to get easier by now. Spoiler alert: it really does. Trust me on this! But here’s the truth I learned the hard way… Grief doesn’t follow a timeline. It follows your heart. And some days, that heart needs extra grace. Which brings us to our next part… SEGMENT 2: GRACE — GOD’S GIFT FOR THE DAYS WE CAN’T EVEN Grace is God’s way of saying, “Lady, sit down. You’re doing the best you can.” Give yourself some grace. Grace is what whispers, “You don’t have to be strong every minute.” Give yourself grace. Grace reminds us that Jesus never once said, “Thou shalt not fall apart in Target.” Give yourself grace. Grace shows up when we’ve used up all our patience, all our coping skills, and all your emergency food. I had to quit having "emergency food in my house, like Ice Cream, Chocolate, and wine, because when the emergency came, that stuff was already gone. And listen—grace is not only what God gives you, but what you must learn to give yourself. Maybe today grace looks like: Taking a nap instead of pretending you’re fine Saying no to people who drain you Letting the laundry stay dirty for one more day Crying without apologizing for it Grace meets you where you are—not where you think you “should be.” SEGMENT 3: GRATITUDE — THE TINY LIGHTS IN A DARK ROOM Now… let’s talk about gratitude. I’m talking about the real-life, grief-stage gratitude that sounds more like: “Well, thank You, Lord, that my coffee didn’t spill on my shirt today.” Gratitude in grief isn’t about pretending everything’s fine. It’s about noticing the little mercies that keep you going. Sometimes gratitude looks like: A good hair day when you needed it A friend texting “thinking of you” at the perfect moment A funny memory that makes you smile through tears A day where you didn’t cry until 2 pm Every tiny thank-you is worship. Every moment of noticing good is healing. Because gratitude doesn’t erase grief— it simply gives grief somewhere softer to land. "When people hear the word gratitude, they think I'm supposed to be grateful for losing Ralph. Not a chance. I would give anything to have one more conversation with him. That's not what gratitude means. Gratitude means I'm thankful for the years we had. I'm thankful for the love we shared. I'm thankful for the people God sent to help me survive after he was gone. I'm thankful that somehow, through all the tears, God took my greatest pain and turned it into a ministry that helps women all over the world. Some days my gratitude is deep and spiritual. Other days it's, 'Thank You, Lord, that I only had to do my makeup once today" 🌸 These are Things I'm Grateful For Even While Grieving I'm grateful that Ralph loved me so well that losing him hurt this much. I'm grateful for the years we had together instead of focusing only on the years we lost. I'm grateful that God never left me, even during the days I was angry, confused, and heartbroken. I'm grateful that my pain became my purpose. I'm grateful that my story can help another widow feel less alone. I'm grateful for every woman who listens to this podcast and realizes she's not crazy—she's grieving. I'm grateful for laughter. Some days it feels like medicine straight from Heaven. I'm grateful for coffee because Jesus works miracles, but sometimes He starts with caffeine. I'm grateful for the memories that still make me smile. ...

    Ep 10 - Joy in Grief: Joy Hunting
    2026/05/26

    Joy Without Grief — Joy Hunting

    In this powerful and joy-restoring episode of Grief Relief for Christian Women, we explore what it really looks like to experience joy again after loss — not the fake smile, “I’m fine,” forced kind of joy, but the gentle, God-given kind that grows quietly in the cracks of a broken heart.

    I’m introducing you to practice Joy Hunting — the intentional act of noticing, receiving, and welcoming joy back into your life, even while grief is still present. Because, ya'll, joy doesn’t show up like a package on your doorstep. After loss, joy becomes something you look for, choose, and allow. And yes… It’s absolutely worth giving it a shot.

    Through personal stories, spiritual insight, and real-life encouragement, we’ll talk about:

    • Why joy and grief can coexist
    • How God invites you to experience joy without guilt
    • The small, sacred moments where joy quietly returns
    • How to train your heart to notice life again
    • Why joy is not “moving on,” but moving with Grief and God

    If you’ve ever wondered whether you’ll feel light again, laugh again, or even recognize yourself again — this episode will speak straight to your soul.

    Grab your journal, or your Notes app on your phone, take a breath, and join me as we learn how to hunt for joy in a season that tried to steal it. Jesus is still writing your story… and joy is still part of it.

  • Ep 9 - Physical Pain vs Grief Pain

    Ep 9 - Physical Pain vs Grief Pain
    2026/05/19

    In this episode, Patty invites you to walk beside her as she compares two kinds of healing: physical recovery from rotator cuff surgery and the emotional journey of grief. Physical pain is sharp, located, and with a clear treatment plan—grief pain, by contrast, is invisible and relentless, surfacing in moments, memories, and quiet nights. She breaks down:

    • The difference between a pain you can point to and a pain you can’t.
    • How grief doesn’t come with a predictable timeline, unlike medical recovery.
    • The body’s response to emotional trauma and what “normal” fatigue, aches, and sleeplessness can look like during grief.
    • Why both physical therapy and emotional work hurt—and why both are healing.
    • The danger of numbness and the importance of acknowledging and feeling pain to heal.
    • The reality that you cannot rush healing, whether it’s tendons or expressions of grief.
    • How grief and faith can reshape your life into a new rhythm, with God present in every rebuilding moment.

    Patty also shares a personal snapshot: six months into her physical healing and eight years into her grief journey. Her message is clear and hopeful: you’re not alone, and healing is possible—even on days it doesn’t feel like it.

    If you’re a widow or a Christian woman walking through loss, this episode offers compassionate encouragement, practical reflections, and a reminder that healing happens at the speed of love—and the speed of God.
