"Forgiveness is a journey...a daily decision not an emotion. For the believer it's a radical choice of the experience we've had [through Christ]...it's a spiritual thing...redemptive vengeance." This brings to mind what Preston said last episode, "Righteous anger compels us to be different, not to attack, revile, or be vengeful." We opposed God and were His enemies, children of wrath. We despised Him, mocked Him, and rejected Him. But He suffered FOR us. He did not make threats nor deceive. Instead He was silent, willingly submitted to death, bore our sin and punishment though He never knew [what it was to] sin. His response...His righteous anger [toward sin] compelled Him to be different from the world and its prince.

All I can do is nod my head and take in what is being spoken to my heart. My mother passed away 7 months ago and though I have walked through grief before, nothing compares to this experience. I reasoned with the Lord the night before my mother passed. I told God, I know that my will and your will may not match during this time for my mother's life and health. My will is for my mother to come back home and have more time, but Your will may be for her to take her rest. I surrender it all to You, my mother, my will, my heart, my pain...you are Lord of it all. Despite the love I have for my mom, You still have the power and authority to be who You are. You still have the right to be God. So all I ask is that if I must walk through this trial, that I don't have to walk through it alone. Walk with me through the fire Father, I'm not looking to be taken out of it. Whatever You decide, I am at peace with it. Early Thursday morning around 5:15 am, I woke up, just super alert with no groggy feeling at all. I listen to some worship instrumentals on KZbin that display scriptures while its playing before bed. The first thing that I saw was Isaiah 41:10 on my TV and I took a picture of it because inside my mind I said "Im going to need to remember this today". Little did I know how much tht scripture would carry me through as 17 hours later I was standing over my mother's bedside, saying my goodbyes. Even at this hour as I am writing this in tears, I thank God for His mercy, kindness, compassion, and love for His children. He has been faithful as He said He would. There are many times God has reminded me of how close He really is. This video is one of them. Thank you guys for this video, I appreciate the insight and jewels of wisdom 🙏.

This is the third meet that I have failed to meet my potential.

“A belief that we’ve held about God becomes real” Whew! Thank you Davy for sharing your story it is truly helping me heal w/ the loss of my father due to cancer and this episode is helping me to accept the peace God has been providing me and not feel bad for being able to have peace and a spiritually clarity about my dad’s passing. I truly believe that my dad’s work here on earth was done and that God called him home. My dad had conversations about death prior to him every being diagnosed and he always said he wanted us to be happy for him and not to be sad about death because “we have a solid relationship and we know where we are going”. Recalling these conversation after his passing and choosing to accept that felt like a betrayal to my family and even my dad because I felt like I should have cried longer and be distraught. But hearing your testimony is letting me know that people do get to that point of clarity and dealing w/ tragedy in a healthy way and is helping me not feeling bad for accepting that now that I’m at that point.

I cannot imagine, God forbid but his testimony and how God turned what Satan meant for evil into a ministry that is saving peoples lives is…mind blowing. I love it! Even the part about running into the pain, the grief, leaning in vs running away. I relate to not wanting to listen to certain songs because of the waves of grief it brings, maybe one day I’ll get to that place.

Davey I, as most will never know the level of grief you felt after losing your wife in such an unfathomably violent way. Though you are out of the acute grieving/mourning period, I know the love you had for your wife will always be a part of you, and ‘missing’ her will be a part of that love. If I could I would give you a big hug. Know that my heart feels and hears you. ❤️ Hearing you recommend ‘the body keeps the score’ was like a huge hug around my heart and soul. As I was lead to this brilliant book, after a horrifically violent family homicide within the last year…resulting in a family member being incarcerated. Being a nurse and one has worked around life and death for years helped, and someone who has experienced trauma, I had a bit of ‘practice’ at loss/grieving. But the violence of this homicide was more than I could ‘manage’. Most church ‘folk’ honestly were unable to ‘go there’, though it hurt, God said they can’t, it’s not possible. So God instead brought a lady-stranger-into my path as I was walking my dog, shortly after the tragedy. In less than 5 minutes she was telling me about a documentary called the ‘Wisdom of Trauma’. Subsequently after watching the film I was blessed to join an international zoom conference on trauma with Gabor Mate’, Bessel Van der Kolk, along with many ‘trauma practitioners’. Many of these folks do not share a common faith in Jesus-yet their compassion for and knowledge of how trauma affects the body/mind has been a huge blessing. God also lead me to a documentary called ‘The Work’ about inmates at a max security facility who got together after a ‘riot’ to figure out how to do life inside differently. The film is VERY RAW AND REAL, but beautiful. Out of that movie I briefly attended ‘inside circle’ (including participants from the film) to connect with others who knew and understood my pain. I say briefly because though the group is ‘beautiful’ I was starting to feel convicted, because it was not a faith based ‘circle’, -it needed to be inclusive for all-I needed to step back and immerse myself in the word and prayer so I did not drift. I have hooked up with other families with incarcerated family members, another chance to be heard from others who could ‘go there’. Fritzi Horstman was an attendee at the international trauma conference-in her work she talks, listens and hears the ‘forgotten’, as expected she learned many incarcerated folks come from trauma and abuse, that has never been expressed, heard or healed. 😢 I lean towards, If we don’t allow ourselves to mourn, feel the pain, talk to Jesus about the pain, stay in the valley long enough, comfort AND healing-spiritual, body/brain (pathophysiologically) cannot happen. Sorry to go on and on, I pray my sharing will bless others, just as your sharing your story has blessed me Davey. Thank you Jackie and Preston you are ‘beautiful’! ‘When grief comes out it makes room for life to come in’-absolutely beautiful Preston. Mt 5:4 Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted. Prayers for all who suffer…🙏👆🏼❤️

Would love to have Davey coke minister in the New England area one day. I don’t know about other states (I can imagine it’s a regional thing), but Rhode Island has a great cloud of grief that permeates everything here. I’ve never known people loose multiple relatives in the same way until I came here. Mental health is a HUGE issue here with less & less resources everyday. These are the convos that need to be had.

God is intentional. My devotion this past week has been on Psalm 23. This was timely. Thank you!

@WiththePerry’s: this was beautifully shared- thank you all. I’d also love and appreciate a segment on what might joining God in His redemptive vengeance look like when you are utterly betrayed in marriage by 2 believers?!

“God takes ugly things to make them beautiful” grieve is painful, but God makes it bearable /almost painless

I lost my best friend 6 months ago & it feels like he just passed away. Never had somebody so closed to me, somebody to understand me & hear me, somebody that saw me for me and accepted everything. I feel broken but God is restoring and keeping me ❤

I saw this a while ago but couldn’t listen until now. I am trying to heal from loss and grief in a healthy way with God. I realize that I haven’t always done so. Not bitterness, but feeling like I suppressed it a bit. Thanks for the podcast and the topic. Praying for all.
