Healing After Brokenness

I Prayed. I Waited. I Broke. Then I Rose.

A Journal for the Woman Who Refuses to Stay Broken
by Pearl Truesdale

​

I Prayed. I Waited. I Broke. Then I Rose is a faith-based healing journal for women after brokenness, written for every woman who prayed without answers, waited without signs, and broke without anyone noticing. This is not just a book—it is a lifeline for the woman who refuses to stay broken.

​

Within these pages, author Pearl Truesdale opens the sacred space between pain and purpose, inviting women to be honest, to rest, and to heal in the presence of God. This deeply personal journal offers permission to slow down, lay down unanswered questions, and rediscover hope through faith, reflection, and quiet surrender.

​

Told in four powerful movements—I Prayed. I Waited. I Broke. Then I Rose.—this journey gives voice to the silent cries of women who have carried sorrow in secret. Through raw honesty, guided journaling, and scripture-based encouragement, the book reveals how divine healing often unfolds quietly, meeting us in the stillness rather than the spotlight.

​

In these pages, you’ll discover:

• You don’t need perfect words to be heard by God.

• Silence is not absence—it is sacred space.

• Being broken isn’t failure—it’s the beginning of breakthrough.

• Your rise is not only possible—it’s already written.

​

Each chapter includes soul-stirring devotionals, reflective journaling prompts, prayer activations, and faith-building meditations designed to guide you from heartbreak to holy restoration. Women walking through seasons of emotional pain or recovery may also find support through our healing after being unheard resource or our abuse recovery workbook for women.

​

Whether you are grieving, weary, waiting, or rebuilding, this journal is your reminder that Heaven has heard you—and your rise has already begun.
