Jeff Raines - Sermon - Good Grief [2 Samuel 1]
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In 2 Samuel 1 we see David dealing with grief and loss when Saul dies. Almost half of the Psalms, many written by David, are Psalms of LAMENT.
What does grieving well look like?
- If we live in denial of death, we cannot live well.
- There are no shortcuts in grief. It is not linear and it is ongoing.
- We can and should honestly bring our grief before God.
- There are no healthy ways to avoid grief.
- God knows loss and understands our grief.
- Because we are people of the resurrection, we know that death will not have the final word.
Present your hurt, your pain, and your loss to Jesus. You will be comforted and find hope.
