Jenny Marrs is working through grief after a number of heartbreaking losses. Most recently, her mother-in-law’s passing has been a hard loss for the family, with the HGTV star sharing how she’s dealing with the “deep heartache.”
Jenny Marrs Shares Wisdom About Grief
On October 1, Marrs took to Instagram to explain that life continues on, but “grief seeps in.”
“I haven’t slept well the last two weeks. Grief seeps in at night most acutely, once I slow down from the day’s activity,” she wrote in the caption. “Each day is a disorienting experience — life continues to move forward as I am simply trying to reconcile my deep heartache with the sunshine out the window and the pressing demands on my time.”
She continued, “This morning, I was sorting through emails for next week’s book launch and happened across a handful of audio files from the audio book I recorded. I opened this one from the ‘Lessons from the Farm’ chapter and I felt my own words speak life to my heart.”
“Maybe someone else needed them today too,” the HGTV star added.
In the audio, Marrs says, “Farm life can be both beautiful and brutal. That day was certainly one of the hardest days. While we’ve witnessed hundreds of joy-filled miracles here on this little patch of land, we’ve also experienced deep grief.”
She shared that a friend’s wisdom during her grief was so helpful. “Being His means holding all of it, the miracles and the pain,” Marrs noted. “And still raising our hands and saying, ‘I don’t understand this and I wanted a different ending to this chapter, but I can still trust that you are good.'”
“Despite the hard, God is always only good,” she added.
