Grief is what love feels like once the person is gone. The Bible never tells you to hurry through it. It does promise that God is near to people in pain, and that the sorrow is not where the story ends.
Jehovah is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart, And saveth such as are of a contrite spirit.
Psalm 34:18 (ASV)Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Matthew 5:4 (ASV)and he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more; neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more.
Revelation 21:4 (ASV)Weeping may tarry for the night, But joy cometh in the morning.
Psalm 30:5 (ASV)Read the Word, every day.
