BIG IDEA: Give God Your Grief And He Will Give You Joy!

Psalm 30:1-12

“Grief”

trouble, annoyance, suffering, anguish, regret, poignant distress, deep sorrow

Our Normal Plan For Dealing With Grief

Silently

  • My Loses
  • My Pain
  • Myself
**God’s Plan For Dealing With Grief**

To Him

  • the reality of our pain.
  • Him about our pain and losses.
  • from Him about His comfort.
**God Comforts Us**

He reminds us that He has walked through grief Himself and is willing to walk through it with us.

Isaiah 53:3


He removes every reason for grieving for all of eternity.

Revelation 21:4-5

**CONCLUSION**

For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

Hebrews 4:15-16
