Season of Loss: Anticipatory Grief

We continue our Sermon Series on Grief and Loss. This Sunday Pastor Teresa will explore the concept of Anticipatory Grief and the scripture reading comes to us from Revelation 21:1-7.

“I thought faith would say, ‘I’ll take away the pain and discomfort,’ but what it ended up saying was, ‘I’ll sit with you in it.’”

- Brené Brown

“Be a comfort to me, Beloved, for I am in distress; my eyes are dim from weeping,my soul is deep with grief. Still, I trust in You, O Beloved,I repeat, ‘You are my Life.’ My life is in your hands; deliver me from the fears which separate me! Let your face shine on me; hold me in your steadfast love!”

- from Psalm 31 translated by Nan Merrill
in “Praying the Psalms”
