Loss and pain
Grief
The process of adapting to an important loss, such as the death of a loved one.
What the Bible can tell you
a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
Ecclesiastes 3:4
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Matthew 5:4
Jesus wept.
John 11:35
A human reading
Grief has no set timeline or correct way to be lived. Crying is a healthy way to express the love that remains. If the pain becomes very heavy for a long time, talk with someone you trust or with a professional.
This page offers reflection and companionship; it does not replace a professional. If what you feel weighs heavily or lasts for weeks, talk with someone you trust or with a health professional.
