Each passing year, I am just a bit more in tune of when my Season of Grieving is on the horizon, am beginning to understand, during this time, the Lord gives all who grief, much Mercy.
When my Season of Grief comes around, I feel my whole being is set on autopilot, as I methodically unpack memories and moments of loving and being loved and cherished so deeply. It is like I am being given movie clips of each of the last moments, I was called to walk hand in hand to the edge of this place and the next with all my loved ones who have been called home.
My Season lasts for almost two and a half months, and consistently to coincides with my last weeks with my beloved.
Going into this seventh year of my Season of Grieving, I have feelings of anticipation and excitement welling up inside me. I do not fear this Season for I can already sense God’s Mercy, beginning to pour over me, at the same time I can almost see the sadness hiding in the crevices of my being being washed away. My anticipation has me visualizing another layer of my cocoon of grief loosening from around me, backing it easier to breath more deeply. I feel lighter, more capable and accepting of more love and being able to be more present to my family, friends and those placed in my path.
This Season, though a tear or two my fall from my eyes, they will not be tears of grief or sadness of tears of hope and joy for the Mercy that triumphs over grief.
This year I move into a Season of Remembrance and Thanksgiving for the Mercy and Healing these past years.
Thank you Jesus for Your Sacrifice, Love and Mercy. Most Precious Blood of Jesus Save us and all the world. Amen ✝️
