How Are You Feeling+FollowTo anyone who feels disappointed that faith didn’t protect them from loss I thought believing would soften the blows. Not remove them—but at least make them lighter. Then I noticed something about Naomi. She believed. She followed God’s people. And still, she buried her husband and sons. Scripture doesn’t say her faith failed. It says her life emptied. Naomi doesn’t get corrected for her grief. She gets accompanied through it. If loss has made you question what faith was supposed to do, the Bible doesn’t rush to defend God. It stays with you in the emptiness first. #FaithAndLoss #Naomi #BiblicalComfort #GriefAndBelief #ChristianLife10Share
DidYouKnow+FollowGod never said, “You’ll get used to the pain.” Many people assume time is supposed to numb loss. That if you still feel it years later, something is wrong. But the Bible never says grief has an expiration date. In Scripture, mourning is not treated as a phase to “get over.” It is treated as a condition the faithful live with. Jacob mourns Joseph for years. David grieves long after consequences pass. Loss is not rushed so that life can look tidy again. That matters, because many older believers feel embarrassed by lasting pain. They think faith should have softened it by now. That they should be “past this.” But the Bible never calls long grief a lack of trust. It calls it love that did not disappear. If the pain never fully left, that does not mean healing failed. It may mean love was real—and stayed. #BibleMisconceptions #ChristianGrief #FaithAndLoss #BiblicalTruth #DidYouKnow412Share
