196.0 Grief Myopia! How to See God's Healing Hand in Heartbreak.

SHOW NOTES

…This made me think about life in grief. 

My existence was myopic on my grief. It was nearsighted on my loss, pain, confusion, anger with the Lord. It was all I could see.  It was all I focused on.  In the beginning of grief, this is very normal because everything (if you knew the loss was coming or not) is traumatic and the body has to survive, process what has happened and still function. It’s overwhelming and there’s nothing else you can see at that point. 

As you walk through the grief journey, there will be times when you have the option to think about, pray about, see other things that are not loss related and I struggled to choose to take my eyes off of my grief. Everything was filtered through my loss and that kept me nearsighted on pain, questions, frustration and anger. 

Today I’ll share what will help you continue to process & heal are the same things that help nearsighted people see in the distance…or see a bigger picture.
