Jesus understands you and your pain! He had pain too!
Go toward the pain to grieve!
I pressed into the pain while I stood at my brother’s casket. Physically I didn’t touch him, but I leaned in and prayed, “LORD, help me grieve as I am so tired of emotional pain, I want some joy on this side of life.”
Go toward the pain to grieve!
Just do it! That means you dump, pour out, even all the questions and tears before a Holy God.
And I am so thankful I pressed into the pain to grieve and to wring out the questions, the loss, the sadness, and all the emotional pain in between so in time, I can use the pain for purpose and for His good.

So how do you do that, pressing into the pain?
-
What do you do with all the in between junk and tears and questions?
-
How long does this take?
-
Will I have some joy someday?
-
Will the tears ever stop?
-
And who can I help with this pain?
- All of these questions are unpacked in my next book, Leading You Through the Valley; A Personalized Grief-loss Coaching book due to be released in January of 2025. Join my readers here to stay in touch and to be the first to know of its release. Receive my first book as a thank you!
