For those grieving the loss of a loved one or searching for consolation and hope, this spiritual guide creates a framework for the journey toward healing. Helping mourners progress from a state of raw grief, sorrow, anger, and isolation to an awareness of the wounded heart and finally to a dawning awareness of the strength of faith, the book outlines a series of comforts to be used as befits the individual's situation. Psalms, words of comfort and courage, songs of sadness and renewed joys, a guide to individual prayer or prayers with others, and outlines for simple prayer services are provided to aid the healing soul.
