Here are some questions for deeper reflection:
What do you do with your grief? Do you feel it? Ignore it? Talk with someone about it?
What is your biggest fear when grief places her hand on your wounded heart? What do you fear with happen if you allow her some space in your life for a time?
Do you allow yourself to be angry about the reason for your grief? Even angry with God? He’s had a lot of practice with humans in this area! the Bible is full of examples of Him being able to handle our grief with compassion. If you are not comfortable with the idea of being angry with Him, what do you suspect is the reason for that?
