Lord, We Lift Our Hearts To You And Ask That You Comfort And Bless This Grieving Family. Amen.
A friend in my hometown was once really going through a difficult time in her life. She had lost her son because he was caught in the crossfire of a shooting and died.
Then, on the day of her son’s repast, his four-year-old son, her grandson, was hit by a truck and died.
This mother, these grandparents, these relatives, this family, had been shaken to the core.
I’m sure their faith was shattered; their hearts were beyond broken, and their trust in God was on the brink. What can we do as humans to make them feel less pain and better? How do we minister to them? What should we do? What should we say? When and how shall we say it?
The old Saints would say that God puts on us no more than we can bear; but try to explain this to the family.
The old Saints would say that God puts on us no more than we can bear; but try to explain this to the family.
They say everything works together for our good, but try to explain this to the family.
They say that God is too wise to make a mistake, but try to explain this to the family.
They say God is a God of Justice, but try to explain this to the family.
They say trouble doesn’t always last, but try to explain this to the family.
They say God is always good, but try explaining this to the family.
They say that Jesus is weeping with them but try to explain this to the family.
They say that time heals all wounds, but try to explain this to the family.
They say that nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus, but try to explain this to the family.
They say that God will answer their prayers but try to explain this to the family.
They say God is a bridge over troubled water but try to explain this to the family.
They say that time heals all wounds, but try to explain this to the family.
They say this too will pass, but try to explain it to the family.
They say, we’ll understand it better by and by, but try to explain this to the family.
So the more I thought about it and talked about it, the more I realized that the best thing we can do for any grieving family is to pray with them, for them, and to stand silently by their side most of the time.
When the pain is more bearable and the dark clouds seem to fade, they will be more open to everything I have said. So, on behalf of all grieving families, I say, “Thank you for joining me and praying for them!” AMEN.
