Grieving is not a bad thing; it’s normal to grieve. No person experiences grief in the same way as the next person. We all grieve differently, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Whether it’s grieving over the loss of a loved one, mistreatment, rejection, or betrayal, we must learn to cope and deal with grief in the correct way so we can heal. In Grieving in the Dark, author and evangelist Cynthia Ousley-Garey offers a spiritual look at grieving, showing the answer is to apply God’s word—the Bible—in your life. She writes that knowing who you are in Christ will help ease the pain while you’re grieving and will lighten the stress, depression, and frustration that comes with grieving. Ousley-Garey provides advice for weathering the journey. Don’t grow bitter during your grieving time. Stay positive, hopeful, and true to yourself. God sees you as victorious. God sees you as an overcomer. God sees you more clearly than you see yourself. You’re not alone. He’ll strengthen you and empower you.
