Reply #24: Yes, I have, Rev. [View All]

I was that way after my dad died. Daytime, I made it through okay, but at night, the tears wouldn't stop. You may not want to hear this, my friend, but let yourself cry. You're grief is so fresh and raw, and your tears are a way of expressing that grief. I know that as a Rev, you are used to ministering, to caring for people in their time of grief. It's your turn now. You won't always be crying every night, as your grief will ease some over time, but really, let it out. And lean on us, and your friends who are physically around you. Let us and them minister to you for awhile, dear. I hold you in my heart, Ruth.
