Word for the day "Grief Release"

Lamentations 3:31 (NLT) For no one is abandoned by the Lord forever. 32 Though he brings grief, he also shows compassion because of the greatness of his unfailing love. 33 For he does not enjoy hurting people or causing them sorrow.Did you know “Grief” is the process that helps you release your pain and losses to God? In your time of grief, you come to terms with your past and you find liberty needed to live in the reality of the present. On the other side of grief, you'll find hope for the future. So if you harden your heart and refuse to grieve, you're likely to get stuck both emotionally and spiritually. How do you release your grief?The prophet Jeremiah shared his grief and tears with God. Jeremiah lived with God's people and pleaded with them to return to God. But his pleas fell on deaf ears, and his heart was broken. So in his grief, the prophet penned the words of the Old Testament book, Lamentations. When you read it, you'll find that Jeremiah didn't mince his words or hide his pain. He weeps openly and fully, releasing his emotions to God. It's a great example for us when we grieve our own losses.Lamentations doesn't provide grief answers for the suffering you may experience. If you'll read it, you'll discover that it's all right to be real, to be angry, to be disappointed with life, and to be concerned about what the future holds for you. God accepted Jeremiah being angry, tired, and discouraged, and he will accept you as well. Just as God honored the tears of Jeremiah, he'll honor yours if you share your pain and sorrow with him. It's likely to be the first step to bring healing for the present and hope for the future. Have a tremendous Monday people of God!
