4 Key Bible Verses to Help With Grief
I’ve experienced the loss of parents, good friends, and a husband. In each, I grieved differently because the loss was different. The circumstances were different, and I was different. Today, if you are a griever, I offer thoughts to ponder. If you are a friend, perhaps this will give you a window into grief.
Cry
It’s alright, more than alright, to cry. Jesus wept at the news of Lazarus. Jesus is described as a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. (Is. 53:3)
You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book. (Psalm 56:8 NLT)
Pray
Perhaps you can't think straight and only offer a one sentence prayer in your pain. Prayer is not only asking or speaking but sitting and soaking in the presence of God. Pray to receive and hear His words to you.
The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. (Psalm 34:18 NIV)
Trust
Trust His plan and heart for you. He loves you with an everlasting love.
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. (Lam. 3: 22-23 ESV)
Give Grace
What? Give grace when you need grace”. Yes. God gives grace because He promises it and He keeps His promises. But in our times of grief, when we are at our lowest, we will have opportunities to give grace.
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. (2 Corinthians 1: 3-4 NIV)
