Free to Weep: Finding the Courage to Grieve and Embracing the God Who Heals
by Brittany Lee Allen
You and I are free to weep because the Savior wept first.Is God frustrated by our tears and weakness? Does He weep with us or is He aloof? Brittany Allen looks to biblical texts to reveal the God who is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). In each chapter, Brittany combats and corrects lies women tend to believe about suffering, like: Weakness is shameful.If you're suffering well, you won't be downcast.Suffering is good.Experiencing sadness means you're discontent.Once you learn God's lesson, your suffering will end.And more.
