“The sun will shine again”

How do you cope when a deep or tragic loss leaves you feeling empty, angry or alone? Healing is a journey, and while there are no shortcuts through the process of grief, God promises not to leave you in the valley of despair. Have you ever walked the lonely road of rejection? If so, you know the silent cry for acceptance, that inner need for intimacy, the deep craving for closeness. Jesus, too, dealt with the feeling of exclusion. Your identity is in the Lord because of your relationship with Him. He holds you in His compassionate hands, and you are accepted. This too shall pass. You can be who you were created to be. The best is yet to come and you are strong.

“We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.”

(2 Corinthians 4:8-9)
