Pt 2 Grief: Victory Over a Lonely Darkness

Grief may become sinful, but that is true of many behaviors that are in and of themselves good. For example, eating is not sinful however; excessive eating is referred to in the Bible as gluttony and is sinful. Eating is sinful when a person becomes habituated to over-eating and lacks self-control. Grief is sinful when it becomes a habitual practice that immobilizes a person and they are not doing what God obligates them to do.
