Run to the shelter of the Most High where you will find sweet rest (Psalm 91:1-2). Be assured that God loves you and that He understands how much you are hurting. The Bible tells us that God is the father of mercies and that He will comfort us in all our tribulations (2 Corinthians 1:3-4). Instead, we bring our prayers to God and ask Him for comfort and healing. While it is good to remember our lost loved ones and to honor their influence in our lives, the Bible is clear that we are not to pray to lost loved ones or worship them in any way. It is important to remember that God is ultimately the source of our comfort (2 Corinthians 7:6). We can also honor their memory by living our lives in a way that brings honor and glory to God. 'Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me your rod and your staff, they comfort me. We might find it comforting to do some of the things our lost loved ones particularly enjoyed or to spend time reminiscing about our lost loved ones with other close relatives and friends. We can share stories about the impact our lost loved ones have had on our lives.
We can remember the many good things about our lost loved ones and rejoice in the fact that we were able to share in their lives. We can pour out our burdens on Him and trust in His love to provide us reassurance and comfort (1 Peter 5:7). God is not afraid of our emotions or our questions. Jesus wept over the death of Lazarus, even knowing He would bring Lazarus back to life. It is okay to grieve the loss of your loved one. Even if we are assured that our loved one is in a better place, we still experience the pain of their absence on earth.
