I am sure that you can think of someone who you know that will or is presently having a difficult time with the holiday season we have just stepped into. Loss as a result of a death or significant change in our routine lives is never easy, and is generally made more intense during a time when we’re expected to be happy.
What I have found to be a highlight of this brief conversation is that grief is an expression of something / someone worth grieving because of the love associated with it. So, grieve, Sister, and “go through it.” It’s okay. You don’t have to conceal or camouflage the pain.
The Lord is near to the brokenhearted
and saves the crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18 ESV
Perhaps the Lord has placed someone on your heart and in your mind ~ you know who she is. You can see her in her sadness. You’ve seen her push away from some of the invitations you’ve offered, preferring to isolate. Maybe you’ve recently consoled her in her grief. Or it’s possible she’s not allowing herself to walk through her grief because she mistakenly thinks that others will judge her to be a “weak Christian.”
Friend, I urge you to pray for her in this sacred moment. And if you get that holy nudge to call, text or visit her, go. And when you get there, wrap your arms around her and just let her feel the love of Jesus flow from you.
Enjoy this stimulating conversation and embrace the words of wisdom and comfort from GOD’s Truth and be a blessing to others.
I love you to Heaven and Back, Girlfriend ~
