Bereavement Support Group
Are you grieving the loss of a loved one? Whether you lost someone recently or it's been years, grief and its accompanying emotions can be complicated to cope with. Join our online support group to connect with a supportive group of people who really know how you feel. Help is right here.
I wanted to share this with all of you. I found it in my email today from griefshare.com. It really made sense and I wanted you to know. We are all are at different stages. But I thought this may help.
Moving on does not mean . . .
you forget the person.
you never feel the pain of your loss.
you believe that life is fair.
Moving on does mean . . .
you experience a lessening of the pain.
you can treasure your best memories of the person who has died.
you can realistically accept the different aspects of your loss.
you can form new relationships, try new things.
Moving on also means . . .
you grow in grace and in your walk with God.
you accept your loss and forgive others.
you understand that both joy and loss are a part of life.
you believe that God is good, even when life isn't.
"I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete" (John 15:11).
