OVERCOMING GRIEF
In times of peace is
natural 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?
It seems 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, experiencing 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 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. But 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 and 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.
