Allow Them To Grieve

When our loved ones are grieving, sometimes, we are at a loss about comforting them.  Yes, we may say things such as, “he/she is in a better place now,” or, “at least he/she is no longer in (physical) pain,” or even, “time will heal the pain” and while these things may or may not be so after we have said these words where do we go from there?

One of the best things that we could do for them is to allow them to grieve.

You see, the truth is, there is not much more that we could say or do to stop them from being in this state of sadness. Therefore, we should allow them to grieve.

They are sad, and they should be allowed to be unhappy. Yes, we should not force our loved ones to be happy before they are ready to accept it.

Although we want them to stop hurting, usually, the best remedy for them is for them to grieve.

God's Care

In Paris, an 18-month-old baby boy, who was left in an apartment with his three-year-old sister while their parents went for a stroll, fell out of a window. The baby fell from the eighth floor. He fell through the window, bounced off the awning of a restaurant and landed in the arms of someone who was walking by. The baby did not seem to have suffered any physical injury. Wow!  Thank the Lord.

Maldives - Rejoins

In 1982, Maldives joined the Commonwealth. However, in 2016, the country left it, which was in response to the Commonwealth’s suspension warning. The Maldives’ government claimed that the Commonwealth “sought to become an active participant in the Maldives' domestic political discourse, which is contrary to the principles of the charters of the UN and the Commonwealth.” Then, on the 1st February 2020, under the Ibrahim Mohamed Solih government, the country rejoined the Commonwealth.  Note: The Commonwealth https://thecommonwealth.org/our-member-countries/maldives
