Today's Verse

"For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:(1) a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance." - Psalm 3:1, 3:4

The loss of a loved one can be so devastating and unbearable at times that you wonder if you are ever going to be able to come out from under all the grief. Chances are you're feeling very alone, right now. People who haven't suffered a great loss don't know the gut wrenching despair you're going through. It's like being in a big dark pit and you don't see any light at all. Chances are you're thinking it is always going to be like this. It may seem like everyone around you is living their life and all you're doing is existing. The thing about grief is, it is necessary. You know that big mountain that is in front of you that represents grief? You more than likely wish you could jump over it somehow and be done with all the heartache. Unfortunately grief doesn't work like that. You need to slowly climb the mountain with the assurance that you can reach the summit and then climb down the other side. I know this because God is with us always. He will bring you comfort and hope. He will climb that mountain of grief right alongside of you and safely see you to the other side. Grief is temporary. The Lord is forever. All you need to do is call on Him and He will hold your hand the whole way. - Commentary by: Anna Pachaud
