Listen "When Things Grow Dim: Discovering Worth In The Ashes"
Episode Synopsis
Pastor Dell continued our series, Grieving With God, by looking at how God begins the process of cleansing us in our grieving process. Grief can reduce our lives to ashes, affecting us physically through tears and spiritually by stripping away joy. Lamentations 4 portrays Jerusalem's devastation as precious things becoming worthless, mirroring our experience of loss. In our brokenness, God works as a potter with clay, creating something beautiful if we remain pliable rather than hardened. When grief leads to collapse, we still control our response - choosing surrender over destructive emotions. Through this painful cleansing process, God refines us, bringing hidden things to the surface and ultimately working to transform our suffering into beauty.
