Welcome to the crosswalk devotional. We're glad to have you listening with us. Today's topic is about what to do when we experienced loss. Well, we tend with a devotional after a message from our sponsors.

God never dies by Alexis Goring. God is the only one who never dies. He lives in light so bright that men cannot go near it. No one has ever seen God or you can see him. My honor and power belongs to God forever. Amen. 1 Timothy 6:16. At one point or another in our life on Earth, we will experience loss. A woman's pet dog of more than a decade dies and leaves her heartbroken because they were so close. A divorce, his pet cat, with her solace to the trauma of her shattered heart died, leaving her more broken than ever. A wife whose husband passes away, and she feels like the one has been knocked out of her cells, because he wast her everything. A young man dumped by his girlfriend who he dreamed of marrying, feels depressed now than his hope for that special relationship is over. A child who loses their best friend who they thought would be their friend forever cries out of loneliness.

These are all real life case scenarios about losing someone or something you love with all your heart. Such grief leaves a hole in our souls, because we spent much of our lives be filled and comforted by what is no longer hours. The severed ties are devastating. And we may struggle with how to cope with such profound disappointments. But again is is that there was one relationship that we all can have that will last for all eternity, of friendship with Jesus Christ. It never fails because he and his Heavenly Father God will live forever. God never dies.

The Bible says in Deuteronomy 31:8, the Lord himself will go before you. He will be with you. He will not leave you or forget you. Don't be afraid. Don't worry. We serve a great God who promises to never leave our side. And his promises are forever true. First Corinthians chapter one, verse nine. He loves humankind with all his heart, and He gave His Holy Spirit to comfort us when we are sad and grieving. I understand how it feels to experience loss. When I lost a friendship that I hoped would last forever. God helped me heal and realize that he is my forever friends. Were my wonderful compassionate and Christian faith filled grandparents died. God helped me remember that he'd ever dies. God will always care for me just like my maternal grandparents cared for our family members. When I lost a few jobs over the years that once brought a steady flow of good income. God showed me that he is Jehovah Jireh my provider. When I felt depressed, God showed me that he restores. He even sent me to our church whose theme song is God restores by dynamic praise. God gave healing and restoration to so many people through that churches ministry, and we have forever changed and closer to him because of it. There are since he wasted on life experiences may differ.

We all have a God shaped hole in our soul that only God can fill. No person can complete us like he can. No amount of money and luxury can fill this hole. No drink or substance can permanently relieve the pain. Only God can. While you allow God to fill you up with his presence, while you ask him to give you a peace that passes all understanding Philippians 4:7. God is ready and willing to be everything you need him more. He is just a prayer away. You don't always need to kneel to pray be inside of a church or in the presence of pastors and Christian leaders. Because God is literally everywhere. He hears you no matter where you are in this world. May His faithfulness encouraged your heart and inspire you to go to him for the healing you need after suffering loss. Intersecting faith in life when you're experienced Seeing a loss. Who do you turn to? How does it feel to know that God understands everything you're going through and is ready to help you further reading Deuteronomy 30:3 Jeremiah 30:17, Jeremiah 17:14, Isaiah 40:31, Mark 11:24.
