When the Hurting Is Too Much: A Guide to Contemplative Prayer to Help You Walk with Grief
WHEN THE HURTING IS TOO MUCH
內容簡介
Grief is a universal experience that impacts everyone. While often associated with the death of a loved one, the sources of grief can be diverse, and once their symptoms take hold, the symptoms and stages associated with the experience of a significant loss in one's life can be debilitating. This book dives deeper into the impact grief has on physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual being and provides insight into the author's own personal encounter with debilitating grief. This book proposes that even in these difficult times, a connection to God and faith in Jesus Christ can help people walk with grief, even when the hurting feels like it is too much. This book offers a guide to contemplative prayer, based on Méjico's experiences engaged in ancient, powerful practices of encountering Christ that helped him manage deep and personal loss in his own life. He shares his walk with grief and journey discovering contemplative prayer, in the hopes that readers will learn to encounter Christ while leaning into their relationship with him in the most painful moments of life. On the other side of grief is joy. This book helps lead readers to the place after grief that did not seem possible.
