'Living Loss' / Lila Gribben
Living Loss can be defined as ‘a loss of one’s hopes or ideals related to what a person believes should have been, could have been or might have been’. We all experience some living losses in life, and there is comfort to be found in Jesus’ words in Matt 5 v 4 ‘Blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted’. We read in Genesis that Joseph experienced many living losses. Rejection, being a victim of injustice, losing his home, estrangement from family, to name a few. Our lesson from his story is one of hope. His life shows us the importance of turning towards God in our times of mourning, and fixing our eyes on the goodness of God.
