A Daily Devotional About
God's insulation for your grief… John 11:33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. (NIV) John 11:33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled, (KJV) God does not want you to hurt. God does not want you to grieve. God understands your hurt and grief. God knows your hurt and grief first-hand because He lost a Son just as you might have lost someone you love or for whom your care. In God's love and grace, God can bring to you an insulation you can put between you and your grief. God's insulation is a combination of His will and His love. God's insulation helps keep out the pain, just like the insulation in your walls keeps out the heat or cold. Opening up your heart to God's love is like taking off the old plaster and wallboard so insulation can be installed. Opening up your heart to God's love takes a great deal of hard work in the form of trust and faith in God. To begin the insulation process, try to understand fully God wants to be with you when you grieve. God wants you to let Him be a part of your life right now. God wants you to let Him walk with you and talk with you every day, even in your pain of grief. God wants to come between you and your grief. His Holy Spirit was sent back to be a real presence, in real time, in the real space in which you live to help you live fully as you heal from the hurt of your loss. |
