SHOW NOTES

I want to share the full WORD and some lyrics of the Song of the week as the show notes.

This fits our grief journey so well and is more important than any words I could share on the subject. 

WORD of the Week  2 Corinthians 3:6-10

3 We put no stumbling block in anyone’s path, so that our ministry will not be discredited. 4 Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses; 5 in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger; 6 in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love; 7 in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left; 8 through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors; 9 known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed; 10 sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.

SHOW NOTES

The holidays are a real grief milestone – much like your loved one’s birthday, day of death and anniversaries.  You know they are coming and yet there is no good way to prepare for how you will feel and how to make it through.

I felt a lot of anxiety, sadness and guilt as the holidays neared.  The guilt came from knowing that as a Christian, I should be so focused and thankful for the reason we celebrate Christmas.  But all I wanted was to crawl in a hole until December 26th. 

In today’s episode, we’ll talk about letting go of guilt and how to cope with everyone else’s annoying happiness.  Sorry, not sorry – it’s truth.

WORD of the Week  Deuteronomy 31:8

The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”

SHOW NOTES

This week is Thanksgiving, and it may be a day you just want over with, so giving thanks isn’t so easy.  And, when you are getting lost in your feelings, it’s hard to do the thing that will change all things.  I’m talking about being in God’s word.

Today, I want you to know that you aren’t alone, you are loved.  Just sit back and listen as I read God’s word and a few quotes to help you through this day and week.  God is still good, and you still have a purpose for your life.

WORD of the Week  Deuteronomy 31:8

The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
