A loose application of "the five stages of grief" to my following the invasion of Ukraine from a distance, with some extra focus on anger. Thank you for listening, and for your own caring and praying for Ukraine!

Thank you for taking the time to listen and respond, Lee, even in the midst of your own loss. Thank you for sharing done of your own journey through grief, and your testimony to God’s faithfulness in that journey. May He continue to hold you close and comfort you. And perhaps one day you could even share some of that journey on the podcast, if/when you feel comfortable?

... the ”stages of grief” is not linear. I can also attest to the awesome grace of God at work during bereavement. As we look to Jesus, He truly is The burden Bearer and The Comforter and the lifter of our head. Bless you and your family and hold them close.
