How do you handle grief?

Credit: internet.
Everybody hurts - so goes the song. Listen to it on the internet by clicking on this link and I do give due credit to R.E.M. for this incredible song. And it is true. According to the Scriptures the entire universe suffers and is hurting. I am no exception. My reader, you are also hurting and you are suffering grief. How do you handle that grief of yours?

My question, and I dare say most people will ask the same question, is: How do you handle grief?

A few years ago I was dealt the most severe blow ever. I am still hurting but not so much because time marches on but more than that I trust in the living Jesus Christ for healing or endurance or whatever He might have in store for me and my loved ones. I cannot change the past; I am not a prisoner of the past and my hope in Jesus Christ drags me forward - that is dragging me on when I can't keep walking. 

Last night [3 July 2018] my wife read me this portion that was posted on Facebook and it brought great comfort and relief to me and to her - have a look at this link. Please read it to the end and I will pray that it will bring comfort to you, my reader.
