Blessed are they that mourn....

When we lose someone we love is a very painful thing, and unfortunately it's something we all have to  go through at one or more times in our life,
But not to make it any easier there's a string of emotions that we all get slammed with, that we must try to deal with once they arrive.


We may feel, shock, anger and even sometimes guilt, and most of all sadness which seems to never end,
While these feelings are somewhat frighting, we must have them if we ever expect to mend.


These feelings we all feel are normal reactions to the situation at hand, and we must allow ourselves time to go through the grieving,
We also need to accept them and allow our self to feel what's necessary for the healing.


While there certainly no wrong or right way to grieve, but I know from experience that turning things over to God is a healthy save way to cope.
Matthew 5:4 tells us: 'Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted' and this truly gives us hope.


While the loved one you've lost may not be on this earth any longer,
They may not be having to suffer pain, deal with problems and they could be walking the streets of glory! That in itself should give you comfort, peace and make you stronger.


While we're always told time heals all wounds, this is no comfort to the heart,
But with God's helping hand it really can be a new start.

Revelation 21:4


 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
