Season 2, Episode 7: Tears Can Be The Cleansing Water
Description
In this week’s podcast session, Karrie discusses the second step of healing which often comes after we have brought our story to light. It is a period of grieving.
There is no unspoken timeline when grief needs to be resolved. We are always grieving. Grief is a part of our everyday life. But when we grieve in a God given way it moves us through the trauma and hurt, and it allows for us embrace peace because we are not eradicating parts of us.
Common misconceptions about grief are:
- If I start grieving I will drown
- Grief is weakness
- I need to stop being sad
- There is a timeline on grief
Karrie walks us through how we can find comfort in the grieving process and how we can share our grief with God and within safe places. Grieving inevitably happens when we are alone, but the fullness of healing comes when grief is communal.
Reflection Question:
What grief have you been holding back?
