A little boy and his father visited the country store, upon leaving the store the owner of the store offered the little boy some free candy. "get a hand full of candy", the merchant said to the boy.
The boy just stood there looking up at his father. The owner repeated himself, "Son get a hand full of candy, it's free."
Again the boy did not move continuing to look up in the face of his father. Finally, the father reached into the candy jar and got a hand full of candy and gave it to his son.
As they walked back home, the father stopped and asked his son why he did not grab a hand full of the free candy.
The boy with a big smile on his face looked into the face of his father and said "Because I know that your hand is bigger than mine."
Needless to say, in your time of sorrow and grief, place it in your Father's hand because His hand is bigger than yours.
You just have to learn to trust Him.
I have to admit that sometimes trusting Him isn't easy because our sinful nature would like to take over.
But letting go and letting God is the sure way to victory.
