Return from Exile F Remy Diederich

Here's your guide to recovery from grief and loss.

"Return from Exile is a road-map through the wilderness of loss."

[I learned that]..."our lowest low is the very time that God is making His greatest investment in us."

How are loss, failure, and personal setbacks an exile? Literally, exile is when a person, or a people, are banished from their country. Metaphorically, exile is when life throws you a curve and you end up lonely, disillusioned, and suffering grief over what you once held close.

What kind of losses make an exile? Exile could be from a relational breakdown, like divorce, or from the abuse of your childhood. It could be from the death of a loved one, or from a setback in health, like cancer. Exile can result from various seasons of life like a job loss, infertility, the empty nest, or an emotional condition like depression or anxiety.

Loss comes in many forms. But most people are unaware of the deep impact it has on their lives. As a result, they live with a nagging ache in their heart, feeling lonely and broken, having no idea how to deal with it.
