One of the things that makes grief hard is that it often doesn’t make sense to us.
We ask questions like “Why?”, “How?”, and “Seriously, God, how much more could there possibly be?!”
We get angry at the ways we did what we were “supposed to,” but somehow we still got to where we are.
We listen as people point out that God’s still got us. But that can be really hard to believe when it feels like we are living in an empty void.
Sometimes we just need someone to sit with us and let us speak aloud our grief and share our pain.
