In this sin cursed world mourning is normal, but one day it will be removed. Sometimes our mourning is not temporary, but lasting and debilitating.  What do we do?  We should care for people the way God made us and that is caring for body, mind, and soul. We often focus on one or two of these to the exclusion of the others, and when we do we only harm ourselves.  Thus, we must consider God’s instructions in all these areas.  This sermon focuses on the first, and the following sermon will delve into renewing the mind and reviving the spirit.
