Grief Is Real And Sudden



The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.Psalm 34:18

 

The recent air disaster in Washington DC claiming the lives of 67 souls will forever be with the victims families, friends, and co workers.  Grief is ongoing and real and should be gone through for every person suffering a tragic loss.

 

The whys, the what ifs etc can really eat on a person going through this especially in a senseless tragedy such as this crash on 29 January. But it is over and there is no going back. It leaves open wounds that will take years to heal. 

Hopefully something good can come out of this tragedy. That statement might make a person who lost children pretty angry. It takes time to heal hurting grieving hearts. Maybe it is a spouse, young adult child, stillborn baby, grandparent no matter what the age it still hurts. It is just more shocking when children are involved. God didn’t do this and that is something everyone needs to understand. He can bring beauty out of ashes so let’s wait and see. 

PRAYER: My heart aches so bad for those I know personally who lost a loved one and sometimes suddenly. Give them peace and guard their hearts. In Jesus’ name. Amen. 

Note: I recommend the book Grieving The Loss of a Loved One by my friend Kathe Wunnenberg. Get it on Amazon.
