OUR GRIEF MATTERS!!!

Isaiah 53:4-5 King James Version
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

Isaiah 61:3 King James Version
3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY FRIENDS!!!
Something about this passage of scripture really touched my heart, and deeply encouraged me, because I have been through just what Job went through, and trust me when I tell you it wasn't fun. I know in my own life, that I've had individuals like Job's three friends, either minimize my pain, or try to state that what I'm going through, is because of some “deep, dark, sin in in my life”, when they have absolutely no clue what I'm going through! It's in those moments, that I’m like Job, seeking God for answers, and God more than gives them to me!

That's why I so greatly appreciate and treasure these questions from this morning's devotional, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions carefully, and I pray that God will encourage you through them as well.

How can facing pain honestly bring healing?

When have you experienced unexpected grace and beauty within great grief?

What I'd like to do right now, is share through this vlog, just how God can be that source of comfort for you in your grief, so that you can know that in those times of sorrow, in the deepest pain and grief of your life, that God is not only there, but that your grief and pain matter to Him. Come join me in this vlog, and learn how you can experience the living God who will meet you in your pain!

So, as I close this post with you all tonight, I pray that you can find the strength and courage to be honest with God in your grief, and express your concerns to Him in prayer. Know that in God's eyes, your grief matters, and that you can find healing, joy, grace, and beauty within that pain, if you are willing to express it honestly and openly to Him. Remember my friend, that God is ready and willing to meet you in your pain, and will carry you through that pain and even in death to resurrection life. Don't be afraid to express your pain, fear, struggles, and disappointments, to Him, but know that God will not only listen to what you’re saying, but that He values your honest heart.

UNTIL WEDNESDAY GANG;

HAVE A BLISSFUL AND SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!
