Day 3 of Grief Bites, A New Approach. I love this series! It's totally focused on death and not other losses. (That sounds horrible-sorry!)
Sometimes, those going through grief feel all alone. The great news is this: we are never alone.
God has not forgotten about you in your time of heartache and loss...and He never will.
When faced with deep grief, we can be tempted to believe we have been forsaken. We can feel terribly alone, as though no one could possibly understand the depth of our heart's cries. There is Someone who can indeed relate to our heartaches in life...God.
God cares so much about our grief and He can truly understand each and every teardrop that falls. In fact, He cares so much about you that He has collected EVERY tear you've ever cried.
One day, while I was going through deep heartache, I began to study what the Bible had to say about grief. I found God's Word had amazing blueprints for grief, heartache, loss, and trials.
Today, I invite you to do the same thing I did: do a personal study on grief as you read God's Word. It's a fascinating study that will bring you closer to God's heart than you could ever imagine.
How amazing and beautiful is it that God cares so deeply about us that He collects every tear we cry and records every sorrow we ever experience? (I love this thought of Him having all of our tears).
We serve a great God who will be with us, and even carry us, through life's heartaches.
God has a grand purpose for your life...seek His heart to find it!

Verse:
Psalm 56:8
You numbered my wanderings;
Put my tears into Your bottle;
Are they not in Your book?
