Elevate GriefSample

Maybe you aren’t the one grieving currently, but odds are, someone in your community is. As believers, we are called to love our neighbors.

Can you remember a time you were experiencing loss or hardship? Who came around you and encouraged you? How did they do it? How did they help you get through it?

Now, what would it look like if you were that person for someone else? God has designed and equipped you to be a brother or sister to your friend who is struggling, especially when they need it most. Just as Christ comforts you in your pain, you have the opportunity to do the same for those around you.

Today, think of someone at your school, church, or neighborhood who could really use a good friend right now. Think of a way to love them well, and then, go do it! This could look like a handwritten note, flowers, bringing them dinner, or even taking a chore off of their plate.
