Sometimes I feel like John the Savage

Sometimes I feel like John the Savage, mourning a world so ravaged it forgets how to hope.

The earth is tired, its people trading holiness for hunger, their souls for the fleeting thrill of the flesh. They call it freedom. They call it love. But it’s only decay disguised as light.

We were called to be better, to hold the hand of God, yet I watch them let go, one by one, to join the fiery dance with the devil.

And John—his feet become the compass, turning slowly in death’s quiet wind, searching for Heaven and finding only nothingness. He wants to believe in God, to feel the warmth of hope, but he’s met with silence and sin. I see him, and I see myself.

I wrestle between faith and despair, between surrender and rebellion. One hand reaches for Heaven, the other is pulled by the depths of despair.

Is there anyone left who feels the ache of right and wrong? Who longs for love that is holy, honest, and unafraid to call out the darkness?

I don’t want the kind of love that flatters the senses and starves the soul. Love is patient. Love endures. Love waits because it is sacred.

The soul is a covenant, a light meant to meet another light. But how can two become one when one has burned itself to ash?

So I whisper to this brave new world: I’ve never known another more like me than John the Savage.

His feet turned in search of Heaven, and I pray mine still might find it.

Take a moment and put yourself in their shoes. Not only are you experiencing grief after losing someone really important to you, but you’re opening up about your grief journey for the world to see. I really can’t imagine this level of bravery. Maybe they know they can help the next family Who loses someone. 

I’m somewhere in this post 😁 can you guess where?

Our hearts are heavy as we witness the devastating flooding in Texas and the heartbreaking loss of life—including children. Families are waking up today, or going to bed tonight, with their entire worlds shattered by sudden, unimaginable loss. Many are likely still in shock as they try to make sense of what just happened.

We're also thinking of our friends at The Children's Bereavement Center of South Texas. We know their incredible team will be there—just as they always are—for grieving children and families.

To our friends at the Center: We’re holding you close. We know families are turning to you right now in their darkest moments, and we’re here to support you in any way we can.

You are not alone.

What Ashley shared on TV took real courage.

At just 16, Ashley’s world changed forever. Now, she’s using her voice to help other grieving teens know they’re not alone—and she sat down with Britt Leoni on Gulf Coast News to share her story.

We’re so proud of this incredible Valerie’s House teen. Her strength, honesty, and heart are what this place is all about.
