When Grief Knocks At Your Door

When you are shaken to your core and old man grief knocks at your door. Life feels as if a storm passed through, and left you feeling numb and blue. Whether caused by a loss of job or one who was a dear heartthrob, or loved ones who are laid to rest, Grief is a never-welcomed guest. Grief may come when we least expect, and in our soul his tent erect. How long he stays depends on you, dealing with him could bless you too. Frequently we are given the time, to prepare for the painful climb out of the hole, our losses leave, thus causing our souls to grieve. Failure to grieve compounds the pain, Increases stress and mental strain. Eventually, your brain will snap, making you flip and blow your cap. Please do not be afraid of grief. Ask God to strengthen your belief. Let Him walk with you through the pain. In the end, you will reap great gain. The next time grief knocks at your door, think of it as a common chore. If you work through it to the end your wounded heart your God will mend.
