Have You Ever Felt Relieved After The Death Of A Loved One? by swhiss: 11:36am On May 11, 2021
Yes. Death is a cruel and heartless enemy, And none of us ever wanted any of our loved one to die because of the hurt and grief their passing will bring.

But have you ever felt relieved upon hearing the news of that family member or friend that died, and you where like "Thank you, God, oh, Thank you".

Many may see it as wrong or abominable and wouldn't want to admit to it, but if you have had a reason to ever feel this way Let's hear from you.

I'm very much interested to see the kind of comments that some humans will type.

Mine was my father, he died after long battle of acute DDD. degenerated disc diseases.

It was something no human will wish for his enemies but seeing him lying down with so much pain every day of his life will make you leave all you work for and stay abode with him.
He pass On 93yrs and I felt relieved that such pain won’t hold him down anymore.



Bros the both words are not the same please check your dictionary. You get consoled by another and you felt relieved within

In my opinion, I think the right word should not be relieved because it will later haunt you especially when the real impact of their eternal absence hits you. I think the right word should be consoled. No one is 'relieved' to lose a loved one.

I think the right word should be consoled. No one is ever 'relieved' to lose a loved one. If your dad is gone, no matter what the circumstances is, you will never in all sincerity want him to go but if they eventually depart, you grieve seriously but take solace or consolation in knowing that they are no longer in that pain but you really still crave their presence. Even a patriarch on a death bed still have very tremendous power that at the last minute can make or mar one's life. Isaac was blind and old when his wife connived with his younger son to cheat the elder one and the rest is history. Death of a loved one takes you to the lowest ebb and you suddenly feel vulnerable that relief is far from your thought.

You're actually contradicting the words and their meanings , especially the meaning of relief sir
Let me help you with their meanings sir. I hope you now see that console is the right word. Their eventual demise was their own way of consoling you from the grief of watching them in agony at the throes of death. They 'consoled' you by 'going away' but their departure still leaves you in grief,albeit slightly lesser when you recall their pains. Their departure does not reassure you or take away your anxiety that they will die because you knew they will eventually die someday but it can give you a measure of comfort (console) you when you experience the grief of their departure .

No matter how we try to sugar coat, there are people whose death whether Family or non Family brings relief and Joy to others.

There are People , Family members, etc who have sworn to be a torment to others.
There are People who have said " over their dead body will they see you do this or do that "

We pray for everyone to be Saved and come to Christ, but when you refuse to stop your evil and Wickedness on others, then we have to send you Quickly on OUR KNEES to the other side.

Such Deaths, whether Family or whatever brings Relief.
I have had quite a lot of that.

I remember a Sister, who traveled for her mother burial.
She came back and her Lanlord said to her" I heard you went for your mother's burial! You will be the next to go! My sister got annoyed and told the Lanlord it is Him that will die. The Lanlord told her to come bet! That he gives her 7 Days . My Sister came to Him and bet and told Him, She gives him 3days. The Battle line was Drawn! Somebody words must Stand!
My Sister came to Church and sued Her Lanlord to the court of Heaven! Brethern Exactly on the 3rd day , she came back home from Church and saw Crowd of people in the House! Baba Lanlord had Drop Dead! It was Mysterious! So you can imagine what would have happened to my Sister if she had not returned his evil on his Head!

The World we are is filled with Wickedness!
There are People that must Kick the Bucket for you to Shine

I don't think this refers to the context the OP raised. He is referring to the death of someone you love so much and their departure tears you down that you weep like a baby.
I don't understand this idea of rejoicing at the death of a person. The only person who rejoice at the death of a sinner is Lucifer. Didn't your bible tell you that we should pray for our enemies and God does not rejoice at the death of a sinner? Please let us not derail the tread.
I feel the OP and he is seeking a path to understanding how to overcome that particular stage of grieving. I have shared how I think he should look at it, not as relief but as consolation. What do you think sir?

I Believe you don't understand the op!

These were the words of the Op!

But have you ever felt relieved upon hearing the news of that family member or friend that died, and you where like "Thank you, God, oh, Thank you".

Secondly, learn to mind your Corner. Give your Summation and move.

You're wrong sir. To you everything is enemy die die. Thank you Jesus exclamation does not automatically mean he is insinuating the dead is evil and relieved that death has taken away an evil soul. Please read the comment of the guy who lost his father due to DDD at a ripe age of 93 to understand better. O ga o, this religion of enemy die die is unscrupulous and the Lord did not save His children to now be at the mercy of evil people or start rejoicing when anyone does.
