We all grieve at times. Life has its difficult times. Is there any good that can come from grief? When we are grieving we should be encouraged by the words of the Bible. As we mature as Christians, we learn that we can rejoice through our trials and we can come to the point that we understand that when life is unfair we should still trust God.
