Ambiguous loss is the sorrow we feel when something is lost but not gone—when a loved one’s memory fades, when relationships change without closure, when the future we imagined quietly slips away. This week gives language and permission to a kind of grief that often goes unnamed. Scripture reminds us that God holds us even in the in-between, where answers are few and resolve is slow. In these uncertain spaces, we discover that hope is not denial but endurance, and that God’s remembering is stronger than our forgetting. Even when nothing feels settled, sacred strength meets us in the ache of what might have been.
