Lisa has a true momma heart, especially as she shares some of her \u201cbig breaks\u201d:  the disappointments and difficult challenges she has experienced with her children.  Before she shares the details of the circumstances, she wisely shares and gives us information about three different vessels. A Lachrymatory, or tear jar; a Herodian lamp, a lamp like what the 10 virgins might have used; and a broken bowl using the Japanese art of Kintsugi to repair it \u2014the joining together of the pieces with a special kind of lacquer from the Urushi tree mixed with gold. The symbolism and the explanation of the different vessels is wonderful to know.
\n
\nLisa shares about the loss of her young teenage son due to death of a unique neurological disease, the loss of another son who chose to live a different lifestyle and how his choices affected Lisa\u2019s relationship with him, as well as the relationship separation Lisa experienced due to another child\u2019s choice to distance themself from The Church and its teachings. Lisa speaks about her own disease \u2013 a hard heart. She speaks about real emotions of anger, disappointment, guilt, and shame while dealing with these \u201cbig breaks\u201d and her own brokenness.
\n
\nTrusting in the Savior, attending the temple, and time have been her healers \u2013 TRUST, TEMPLE, and TIME. Sharing her testimony of the Savior and His Atonement, Lisa knows coming to Him helps us to \u201cHold on\u201d in His way.
\n
\nLisa is generous in her sharing in a real and vulnerable way. Her experiences and stories will touch your momma heart and might give you some hope to \u201cHold on thy way\u201d with a few of the \u201cbig breaks\u201d you may be experiencing in your own journey.
\n
\nWe thank Lisa Grant for her message of hope and love and testifying of the Savior Jesus Christ, even in her brokenness.
