Lamar knows firsthand that grief and deep loss come from a variety of life's challenges. She shares her real-life experiences during grief and loss that helped her to grow and mature spiritually as she grew closer to God and became the powerful woman of prayer and faith that she is today. She reveals how God uses grief to draw hurting individuals nearer to Him. Her own personal story is testimony of how Jesus can pick up the pieces of broken hearts and restore faith through the power of the Holy Spirit and His Word.

When asked what inspired the author to write this book, Lamar said, "The deaths of many loved ones, friends who went through divorce, separation from family, job loss, loss of homes, and other losses in their lives. It is my earnest prayer that readers of my book will know that God is real. He will carry you through your darkest night, rescue you when you are in despair, save you from your destructive thoughts, pick you up off the floor (literally)."
