When God Doesn't Fix It
Is it possible that good things can come out of our broken dreams?
Have you ever prayed for healing, restoration, reconciliation, or a miracle—and nothing changed? Grammy Award-winning songwriter and bestselling author Laura Story offers hope for anyone struggling with unanswered prayer, disappointment, suffering, or circumstances they cannot change.
Laura's life took an unexpected turn when her husband, Martin, was diagnosed with a brain tumor. The fairy-tale life she had dreamed of was forever altered when they learned there was no cure to restore Martin's short-term memory, eyesight, and other complications.
In When God Doesn't Fix It, Laura draws from her own journey through ongoing hardship and shares powerful biblical truths about trusting God when life doesn't unfold the way we planned.
Yes, with God all things are possible. But what happens when God does not change the situation? As Laura wrestled with broken dreams, she discovered joy, deeper intimacy with Jesus, and a faith strong enough to endure unanswered questions.
For anyone learning to walk by faith when God seems silent, distant, or unwilling to remove the pain, When God Doesn't Fix It offers an honest and hopeful look at the hard truths.
Inside you'll discover:
- How to trust God when your circumstances remain unchanged
- Why faith is about more than receiving the outcome you want
- How to find peace in the middle of uncertainty and suffering
- What Scripture teaches about God's presence in difficult seasons
- How disappointment can deepen your relationship with God rather than destroy it
- Why hope is still possible, even when your prayers are answered differently than expected
Whether you're facing chronic illness, caregiving challenges, grief, broken dreams, relational struggles, or a season of unanswered prayer, this book offers encouragement for the journey ahead.
You don't have to have all the answers to experience God's faithfulness.
Sometimes the greatest miracle isn't that God changes our circumstances—it's that He meets us in them.
If you've ever wondered, "Why didn't God fix this?" this book will help you discover a deeper trust, a stronger faith, and a hope that remains steady even when life does not.
