When we go to the God Family in prayer we can be sure that the Father and Son understand our sorrow and will grant us the peace of mind we need to go on with our lives. One well meaning individual told me that it was all a matter of how a person looks at things. His reasoning was that we didn't have to have emotional downs if we continually think positive. There is an element of truth in what he said. To allow oneself to sink into a state of depression is self destructive and doesn't do the mourner, or the person who is gone, a service.
Self control is important and excessive weeping and sorrow can hurt rather than heal.
But to deny that one has experienced a loss and ignore legitimate feelings is also self destructive and ignores the scriptural instruction that there is a time to weep and sorrow. We know that God desires all to be saved. And that ALL mankind will live again and have their chance at salvation. We take great comfort in that wonderful truth. But God, a God of emotions, who also experienced grief and sorrow, knows that it is a part of the healing process that we do the same.
