When God Feels Silent | Learning to Grieve with God | Lamentations 2

When God feels silent, what do you do with your grief? In Week 2 of our Lamentations series, pastor Angela Mason explores what it means to grieve with God instead of running from Him. Through Lamentations 2, we see that silence is not always abandonment. Sometimes, it’s a place where trust, repentance, and deeper dependence are formed. This message speaks to times where prayer feels unanswered, faith feels dry, and God seems distant. Instead of avoiding grief, Scripture invites us to bring it honestly before God — with tears, questions, and lament. In this message, you’ll learn: Why God’s silence can feel so painful The difference between God being absent and feeling absent How lament becomes a form of prayer What it means to trust God in seasons of spiritual dryness How Jesus entered fully into human grief and silence This message is part of our Lamentations series, exploring grief, suffering, repentance, and hope through one of the Bible’s most honest books. 👉 Watch the full series:    • Lamentations   👉 Start from Week 1:    • God Invites Your Honest Grief | Lamentatio...   If this message encouraged you, consider taking a next step: 👉 Subscribe for weekly teaching:    / @sanctuschurch   👉 Connect with our community: https://sanctuschurch.com/connect 👉 Request prayer: https://sanctuschurch.com/prayer 👉 Support the mission: https://sanctuschurch.com/give Sanctus Church is a multi-site church in Durham Region (Ontario, Canada), creating intentional spaces where people can encounter God through worship, teaching, prayer, and the work of the Holy Spirit.
