No matter your loss! Christ is the Only One who can really help you through the pain! He is able to touch the deepest part of your soul and begin healing it and helping you through this dark journey called grief. Christ’s death on the cross was not only for our forgiveness, but it was a statement to us. He understands your pain. He really knows this suffering personally, He knows you, He sees exactly what you are going through, and He wants to help you through it.

 

The first step is simply asking Him to help you.

 

Lord Jesus,

Please help me through this pain and help me make sense of what has happened.

Help me to receive your help each day and each moment. Thank you for your promises to help me.

Amen.
