My Favorite Takeaways:
What if God didn’t give this to you as a punishment? What if God gave you this to draw you closer to Him?
Psalm 77 - shifting our focus away from our problems back to God’s faithfulness and how He’s brought us through in the past, it can actually dissolve our anger
Our laments can be a pathway to praise - God wants to hear them
God has encouraged me to remember - remember his faithfulness and how He has brought me through
God gives value to the grief process
It’s not the pain, its the mindset
Romans 12:1-2
There is an eternal purpose to our pain
It’s healthy to grieve, it’s healthy to feel anger we just have to bring those feelings to God in a state of brokenness because when we bring our anger to God in a state of brokenness He uses it for healing but when we don’t do that, it can turn into bitterness and resentment that can then keep us in that pit of depression and anxiety
Our greatest ministries are born out of our deepest pain
