Since I lost my wife Christine to cancer in 2019, this verse in Matthew 5:4 has been huge in my moving forward.
“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”
You can mourn and celebrate at the same time; one does not negate the other. In fact, I believe mourning IS a form of celebration, solemn for sure, but an active honoring of the lost loved one.
