10 mins a day, closer to God.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. This verse speaks to the profound empathy and compassion of God, who promises solace to those in deep sorrow. Jesus’ words offer hope to the grieving, reminding them that their pain is not ignored. Mourning, whether for personal loss or the brokenness of the world, opens us to God’s comfort in ways we may not experience otherwise. This promise assures us that God is close to the brokenhearted and that He will provide relief and peace to those who seek Him. Mourning becomes a pathway to experiencing the deep love and blessing that God offers, revealing His heart for His people in their most vulnerable moments. In sorrow, we draw near to a compassionate God who holds us, giving us strength and restoring hope through His unending presence. Our grief, met by His grace, transforms us and allows us to discover the comfort that only He can provide.

Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God.

I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
2 Thessalonians 2:16
Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace.
