When Miscarriages Break Us but God Holds Us

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” – Psalm 147:3

There are some pains that words can’t fully capture. Miscarriage is one of them. When life begins inside of you, your heart begins dreaming. You picture the first smile, the first steps, the laughter echoing in your home. And when that life is gone too soon, it feels as if a piece of your very soul has been torn away.

I remember my own miscarriage before my daughter Azalea. It was more than just physical loss it was an ache that pierced my spirit. I often wondered, What would that child be doing now? Who would they have become? A part of me left that day, and yet in the deepest way, a part of me stayed. Because though I could not carry that child here, their presence never left me.

A Pain Jesus Understands

The comfort I’ve found is this: Jesus knows pain. He knows what it means to weep, to suffer, to carry the weight of what feels unbearable. On the cross, He bore not only the penalty for sin, but also the weight of every sorrow including the grief of mothers who have lost a child.

Isaiah 53:4 reminds us:
“Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows...”

When we feel crushed by the unanswered questions of miscarriage, we must remember: we do not grieve alone. Jesus carries our sorrow and holds it tenderly in His hands.

Heaven Holds What Earth Couldn’t

As mothers, we sometimes wrestle with the “why.” Why did this happen? Why me? But while we may never have answers on this side of eternity, we have a promise: heaven holds what earth could not.

That child you never got to raise in your arms? God is holding them in His. Matthew 19:14 tells us, “Let the little children come to Me, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

Your child is not lost they are found in Him.

Legacy Through Loss

Though miscarriage feels like the end of a story, it can also become the start of a legacy. That little life, no matter how brief, still has impact. It shaped you, softened you, deepened your faith, and gave you a new perspective on the fragility and beauty of life.

Every tear you’ve shed becomes a seed that God can water into testimony. That pain you’ve carried can one day become the very encouragement another woman needs when she feels like she can’t go on.

Hope for Mothers Still Healing

If you’ve experienced miscarriage, know this: you are not broken. You are not less of a woman. You are not less of a mother. You are still chosen, still loved, still created with divine purpose.

Ephesians 2:10 reminds us, “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
Even through the ache of loss, God’s calling on your life is still alive.

Closing Encouragement

To the mothers who grieve in silence, to the women who wonder “what if,” to the hearts that still feel fragile years later: God sees you. He is near to the brokenhearted. He will turn your mourning into dancing.

Your child’s life mattered. Your pain is not wasted. And your story even with its cracks and scars shines with the beauty of His redemption.

Dynasty Reflection: In the KNg Dynasty, we believe that legacy is not measured by years lived, but by the impact carried forward. Even the smallest life leaves a mark that eternity will never erase.
