A Time to Grieve |
Carol L Fitzpatrick |
| Few people welcome grief into their lives. Our choices on how we deal with grief will profoundly impact us for good or for bad. God allows grief for divine purposes. But we can miss out on His provision and purpose if we don’t allow Him to walk us through the essential steps of the grieving process. |
