Learning To Lament

Is there room in our faith for bringing our doubts and our pain to God? Have we discovered the gift of lament by which we can express our deepest struggles to God in a way that is more than mere venting our feelings? Lamenting is how we bring our sorrows to God. For many believers it is a missing dimension of their relationship with God. Biblical laments give us permission to turn to God with our pain and wrestling. We need to learn how to lament well -it does not come naturally.
