Involve God in Your Grieving

Jun 22, 2024    Trevor Hersey

In times of loss and sorrow, it can be comforting to know that as believers, we have hope beyond this life. In 1 Thessalonians 4:13, Paul reminds us that we do not grieve like those without hope.

Jesus invites us to grieve with Him. Just like in Revelation 3:20 where He stands at the door and knocks, ready to come in and be with us in our pain and sorrow.

God deeply cares for us, as mentioned in 1 Peter 5:7 and Matthew 10:29-31. He keeps track of all our sorrows and collects our tears in His bottle.

Jesus, who Himself experienced grief and suffering, understands our pain. Isaiah 53:3 describes Him as a man of deep sorrows, and Hebrews 4:15-16 assures us that He sympathizes with our weaknesses.

Remember, you are not alone in your grief. Invite God into your mourning, pour out your heart to Him, and find comfort in His loving presence. Jesus is there to walk with you through every moment of sadness and pain.

If you're struggling with grief, know that God cares for you deeply and wants to bring you comfort and peace. Allow Him to be your source of strength and hope during this difficult time.
