Grieve and tell God all about it. Don’t hold back; He knows it anyway.
But does God just leave you there, deep in the mud, despair, and hopelessness grief brings? NO!
He give you His strength and a living hope–you are His for eternity.
Lean on Him.
Citing my picture sources:
Doing something creative is my favorite! And I love visuals–not only do they help me learn, but they take me places in my mind. I also use them to meditate on scripture or doodle a picture of what I hear from God through scripture.
So, when I need to keep my eyes and hands engaged in order to relax, I color. I use gel pens and colored pencils, sometimes I doodle whatever’s on my mind, and sometimes I find something in a coloring book. My favorite go-to source for this supply is Hobby Lobby as they carry an ever-renewing source of inspirational and scriptural books from a variety of artists and publishers.
