1) Natural grief MUST occur after trauma.
2) in the case of Christians, its duration can be limited by a Divine intervention in a redemptive form of understanding of what God is saying. Grief must issue OUT of ourselves, or it will turn INward into self-pity, and worse still, into unbelief and idolatry (idolatry of the thing or person we lost, or idolatry of grief itself).
3) The more intense grief, the more intense lesson God is trying to teach us.
4) God showed me that grief was coupled with unbelief, in that I would rather cling on to the present state of feelings of intense sadness affirming it never will be any better, than believe God's promise for ultimate deliverance!! - Shame on ME!!
