Grief resulting from the death of a loved one, never leaves you entirely — even after emotional, psychological and spiritual healing occurs. The journey of recovery will never end on this side of Heaven.
When you suffer a deep cut, that partially severs a muscle, the healing and recovery process requires significantly more than a band-aid — a surface level solution.
It requires proper wound care, optimum nutrition and rehabilitation — doing specific stretches and strengthening exercises that are designed to correct range of motion joint limitations and weakness of the injured and damaged muscle tissues, in order to make a complete functional recovery.
Similarly, after grief knocks at your heart’s door, you must bravely
- Face your loss.
- Find coping strategies during the short term.
- Do the hard work
When children face early trauma, they have an even more difficult road back to wholeness, because they have not lived long enough or had the life experiences needed to develop the coping strategies and resilience necessary to recover from this type of trauma.
When you lose someone that you love dearly, in a very real sense, part of you is forever buried with them, in their grave. The greatest challenge that you may face, during this season of life, is to resurrect the will to live again.
