I loved the distinction between mourning and grieving. Never got to look at it that way and now it has changed the way I perceive loss. Thank you so much for this.
Jameson, I believed that those who have lost a loved one or friend, etc., can be comforted and healed from their grief if they one to let go of the grief. This is my stance because Jesus has all power and He stated that whatever we ask in his name and it will be done (John 15:7). Some would say "well, what about those who are sick and believe for their healing and do not get healed? To them I say, they are already healed, the manifestation of that healing is on this side are the other side (2 Cor. 12:1-10). I think about my son, brother, and mom, but I do not grieve over them not being here; rather, I thank God that they are out of this world (Isa, 57:1-2). I still enjoyed the message.
