None of us are immune to the painful things of life - hurt ebbs and flows for each of us. We brandish the scars of things we have survived in the past. We sit in the dark spaces of our present looking for a way to pass through. And we brace for the future, knowing there will be trials ahead. Dealing with the difficult is part of what it means to be human.

And if pain is to make up a portion of our lives, how do we journey through it well? Is there a way to learn to handle not only the epic and far reaching tragedies, but also the small and private sorrows? 

There is a way! God sees us. He knows the cost of pain on our hearts, and he created us with the ability to grow in spite of it. Here, in the biblical model of Lamentations, God is going to equip us with the tools to grieve and lament. We will see that as we make space for mourning, we can move through disappointments and past hurts. Grief’s process will let us work out what has happened to us and reestablish our integrity, so that we can emerge stronger - healthy and free. 

Together, let’s turn to the book of Lamentations, knowing that dealing with grief and pain is heavy and tough, but it is necessary. God will meet us there, and He will lead us with hope to restoration. 

In this 4 week study from Reaching Her we will:

  • Be equipped to deal with past hurts, walk though current pain, and be prepared to face future trials.

  • Learn what it means to lament and why it is important to grieve.

  • Balance our understanding of a God of love with a God of justice.

  • Recognize our individual pain.

  • See that God is here with us in our pain. 

  • Practice coupling God’s Truth to our experiences.

  • Offer prayers of hope.

  • Walk in restoration.

This book from Reaching Her is designed to help you engage with God through His Word, as well as connect and grow within a community. Each of the four lessons comes equipped with discussion/discipleship questions for you to use personally, in a discipleship relationship, or within a group.
