You are in utter disbelief. Maybe angry. And attempting to make sense of everything that’s going on. Why was it necessary for this to take place? Why now now? What will your life be like now that you don’t have that individual in it?
It would be wonderful if there was a straightforward explanation that could account for all possibilities and provide responses to all inquiries. Unfortunately, there are times when we are unable to comprehend why things that take place in our lives appear to be so cruel or nonsensical. Even the passing of a loved one is shrouded in a sense of mystery, according to the Bible, which refers to “the mystery of iniquity” in 2 Thessalonians 2:7 KJV. This verse seems to imply that some of the things that happen to us are shrouded in enigma.
It is quite difficult to get over the death of a child, parent, or friend. Because God wants us to be able to go through the suffering, he permits us to go through the stages of grief. He is familiar with the agony, despair, and rage that you feel.
You are in a lot of pain, but you can take comfort in the fact that God understands precisely how you are feeling. What gives us this information? This is evident to us due to the fact that the one and only Son of God, Jesus Christ, also passed away. He endured pain and death on a cross in order to make your relationship with God more amicable. He is aware of the anguish you are experiencing and longs to envelop you in his love if you will only let him.
Those who put their faith in Jesus will experience only momentary relief from the anguish brought on by the death of a loved one. Not only did He prepare a path for us to experience joy that cannot be adequately described in paradise, but He also pledges to assist us in getting through the anguish we face here on earth. It is said in the book of Matthew 5:4 that “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”
