Grief & Mourning
“Grief is the painful emotion of sorrow caused by the loss or impending loss of anyone or anything that has deep meaning to you.”
Biblical Counseling Keys on Grief Recovery, June Hunt.
Grief is directly related to both our bond with what was lost and to our wisdom.
Faced with the immanent loss of Jesus, the disciples grieved (were greatly distressed).
In the midst of intense grief, it may seem like it will never pass; never end.
There is such a thing as repressed grief - a smile hides our tears.
God subjects to a life that includes sickness and sorrow, but He neither forsakes us nor leaves us without helps.
Classic Examples of Grief
Job
Jacob (Israel)
King David
Bathsheba’s First
2 sam 12:16
Absalom
Jeremiah
Jesus the Christ
Mourning
Closely related to “grief” is “mourning,” the process of working through the pain of sorrow that follows a significant loss.
Remember, you need not, you do not face mourning alone.
God’s love and word are great helps in working through our grief.
Friends and neighbors comforted Mary and Martha after Lazarus’ death.
