How to Overcome Grief. Desperation.Abandonment.


In times of peace is a natural thing to stay in balance. But in times of war and violence, to maintain the equilibrium is a very complex task. A personal loss, by example, often is almost impossible to overcome. How to go through this dark night? How to overcome what seems to be insurmountable if the reason and the consciousness do not want to forget? How to stop the feeling, the suffering, the weeping? Since, it would seemed that inevitably we are losing the mind. It is not possible to tolerate so much pain.

Man faces his own limits and does not have the slightest idea of how to change, how to live, how to exist, how to be, when the whole being, is in fact, ceasing to be.
There are processes that do not have any possible comparison. And the loneliness of the spirit is cause of great tragedy; the loss of faith, of confidence, of hope and certainty. Nothing seems to allow us to look beyond. Everything turns to desperation, agony: A cry of the soul, who is distressed and cries, experiences fear, desperation, abandonment, misery and pain, time and time again, in an uncontrollable way.
What to do then when facing what is irremediable?
Faith, is the spiritual knowledge that allows us to receive the supreme intervention of God.Faith is not a blind belief, is not a fanatical or obsessive attitude. It is the firm consciousness and conviction that God has not abandoned us, that He has not closed the temple. He has not denied us of His Presence.

Will the loss be ignored? On the contrary, we will be heard and besides, we will be assisted. Grief have to come out of the darkness, of the hopelessness and melancholy. This faith full of power, brings consolation, as grace, as source of life, as divine science. And our chest is not shaken by pain, but by unconditional love, who takes away sadness and leaves the only option, which is the redemption of pain and the rebirth of a powerful love, which is so sublime that changes what was causing agony.

And the heart is intensely awaken with a sublime feeling, which is beyond pain. Because of love, only God can, only God knows.
And we come out of the grief that we were experiencing to the sublimation of the suffering because of Divine Love, who by His greatness can do everything and will not leave any element of pain and suffering prevail, rather, He moves it away so the mind can approach the renovation of faith, of life in the spirit of eternal love.
Because the grief must be overcome since the presence of God leaves behind sadness and abandonment and His Presence renews the science of eternal life.
