Disappointment

What do we do when disappoint comes? We can wallow in our sorrow or we can pick up the pieces and move on. I think that we need to experience the grief that comes with disappointments in life, and then move on. Yes, I do admit, the grieving process may not be fun at times, but, it is necessary for growth and survival. Hopefully, God gives us a circle of friends that we can grieve with. Know that God feels our pain too. And, as time passes, and we experience the various phases of the grieving process, healing comes too. There is joy in the morning! After darkness comes the light. So, if you or someone you know is dealing with a disappointment in his/her life, let them know that there is light at the end of the tunnel! Indeed, grieve, and mourn the loss of whatever it was that brought you sorrow. But, take heart, my friend, God has not abandoned you. God has not forgotten about you. Let yourself be loved by God and the friends of God. Open up your heart to a trusted friend and there you find your healing.
