“Grieving with Hope”--1 Thess 4:13-18 Unfortunately, we sometimes feel like, as Christians, since we believe in the resurrection of the dead, we are not supposed to grieve, like grieving is somehow denying the resurrection. Grieve-yes, but grieve with hope; grieve in community; grieve openly; grieve in Christ! We grieve with hope, because of Jesus. Know that God is going to do what God has promised, and you can count on it, because you see it, feel it, experience it, and live it every day.
