Don't Let the Door Hit Ya

Here is Cindy Sheehan's latest idiocy. Just like the Hollywood blowhards who claimed if Bush won in 2000 that they would leave the country and of course didn't, I'd be willing to bet anything if given a free ticket to Venezuela, Sheehan would stay in the good ole USA.

Hey, she's gonna milk her 15 minutes for all it's worth. The sad thing is, when her fame fades and the distraction of fame is gone, she will still have to deal with the grief of losing a son. I hope and pray that she finds the only way to do that-Jesus.

please explain why Jesus is the only way to deal with grief?

Are those of us who do not believe in Christ incapable of ever putting pain behind us?

seriously, I'd like to hear your thoughts on this.

Southpaw...I'll let FeatherIron reply if she so desires, but I honestly can't answer your question effectively in this format due to the fact that it should involve a lot of give and take as well as being able to observe more than just words on a screen. I do believe her statement 100%, but unfortunately I don't feel I can do the explanation of that belief justice on here.

If ever we meet in DC when I get back to the states, ask me the question again, I'll gladly explain my agreement in her statement.

Southpaw, I knew I'd hear from you after that post!

I am happy to explain. Grief is a pain that plants in the heart. It changes how you look at everything. The grief of losing a child, must be the greatest of pains to suffer in life. The bible says "all things work together for the good of them that love Him.." (Romans 8:28)
If you do not love Him then the grief, like all other besetting pains are not used toward the good of your soul but towards distruction. Many a man has become hate filled, self dictructive and shallow shells unable to love because of grief.

I think Cindy Sheehan's actions and words are those of a woman trying the wrong way to ease the pain of her heart. She is repaying evil for evil. She see's George Bush as the enemy and the reason for her sons death. Freedom is only found in forgiveness, not in revenge. She wants to hurt the one who she feels has hurt her so badly but through Christ she could find comfort, peace and forgiveness, only He can give all the above completely. Only He can give them daily, He is the lover of our soul and wants us to have a great life. He can make it so that her life would not be about revenge but about hope and forgivness for other moms who have lost their sons to war.

There are many ways to deal with grief. Some good and some bad. Isolation, alcohol, and drugs, I believe are all bad ways to handle grief.

A better way to grieve is the love you recieve from friends and family members. Those who understand what your going through.

But the most effective and sure way to deal with grief is to surrender all your hurts and confusions to Christ. Remember, He wept at Lazarus tomb before he brought him back to life.

Whom did this country turned to right after 911? Who better to understand grief than the One who watched His only Son die, so that we may live.
