Grief

“The LORD heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” – Psalm 147:3

Grief is not an enemy or a sign of weakness. It is a sign of being human. It is the cost of loving someone. It is inevitable that during a loss we would be very deeply impacted, shocked or wounded.  Grief is the manner, or process, in which we work through loss. The goal in the grieving process is to re-organize our emotions to cope with loss and to re-establish healthy relationships. This is also the goal of a grief recovery and support group. Grief Share is here to help people as they grieve the loss of a family member or friend.
