While mourning is a necessary process we need to go through in times of loss, we do not want to stay indefinitely in that place of sadness. Often our emotional pain is a sign of something deeper that we need to deal with. Like the Psalmist, we can speak to our soul to find out why it is "cast down." When we hear the Lord beckon to come or to be free or to not fear, that word comes with the grace to "get out of the boat" and do what we thought was impossible.
