Grief can hit you in different ways and for different reasons; however, the strongest grief a person can feel throughout their life is by losing a loved one. Whether someone chooses to separate themselves from you, or you lose them to death, it can take a toll on your emotional, mental, and spiritual health.
You might feel that the world around you is collapsing, and you hold the eternal power for taking something so precious away from you. We’ve put together a few things you should know about regaining faith after you have lost someone you loved.
Let’s begin!
Healing Takes Time
When we’re already dealing with anxiety and depression from a major loss, we expect ourselves to get normal as soon as possible. However, that’s not how healing works. The added pressure of healing on time makes us feel like God is testing us more than we deserve – it’s important to remember that healing can take time.
You need to give yourself time to relax, accept the truth, and learn to live with the new normal. This won’t always be easy, but giving yourself time would help in keeping your faith intact.
Anger is Okay
When we’ve experienced such a drastic loss, we tend to suppress any feelings that might conjure up as a result. Instead of suppressing these feelings, it’s important to remind yourself that feeling angry and alone, and helpless is okay. The first step to recovering your faith is accepting that you have feelings you can’t account for.
Talk to God
Keeping a connection between you and God can be a little difficult especially when you blame Him for everything that he took from you, but you have to keep going. Express how you feel to God directly, and make sure to keep telling him what goes inside your heart, even if it is just anger. Keeping a connection alive is imperative.
Seek Spiritual Advice
It can become really difficult to connect with your spiritual side, especially when you’ve suffered a loss greater than yourself. In such scenarios, reaching out for professional help wouldn’t be the worst thing you do for yourself. Spiritual help can aid the process of healing, and reinventing faith.
