David got up from the floor, washed his face and combed his hair, put on a fresh change of clothes, then went into the sanctuary and worshiped. Then he came home and asked for something to eat. They set it before him and he ate. His servants asked him, “What’s going on with you? While the child was alive you fasted and wept and stayed up all night. Now that he’s dead, you get up and eat.” “While the child was alive,” he said, “I fasted and wept, thinking GOD might have mercy on me and the child would live. But now that he’s dead, why fast? Can I bring him back now? I can go to him, but he can’t come to me.”

Unfortunately, grief, sorrow and many reasons to mourn are unavoidable in this life. In this 5-day devotional, discover how Jesus can trade our mourning for gladness and bring new life — despite our greatest losses.

Our prayer is that these 5 days will encourage you in your journey of spiritual leadership.
