Kosta, there is a difference for me between having joy and being happy. Of course, I would and have mourned the loss of a loved one but not without hope. It is the hope that gives joy in the suffering

If you morn the loss, then you love the world more than God, right?

No. Matthew 5:4

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted

There is a time for everything in its season

Ecc3:4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

Wrong. Did Jesus weep?
