Nehemiah 1:1-11 | Real Women

In this Real Women talk, Grace Driscoll speaks to the ladies on the power of lamenting. She wants women to see that "it's ok to not be ok", but also not to get stuck there. It's helpful and healing to reflect over painful experiences and grieve it out with the Lord in order to experience the full joy God intended over all our lives. Nehemiah stops to fast, pray, and lament for a few months with God over the destruction of the Temple and God's people not being able to freely worship. We all have pain in our lives we need to take time to lament, and God has healing for us at a soul level!
