Grief is love with nowhere to go. There is no timetable, and there is no wrong way to bring it to God.
Featured Scripture
“Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.”
Matthew 5:4, KJV
Truth to hold onto
Jesus wept at a graveside even knowing what He was about to do. Christian hope does not cancel sorrow; it keeps sorrow from having the last word.
“The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.”
“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying.”
A short prayer
Lord, I am grieving. Be near in a way I can feel. Hold what I have lost, and hold me. I will not rush this, and I trust You with all of it. Amen.
