At one point in our life we have all mourned something. It could be a loved one, a pet, a dream, a relationship, your plans. Whatever it is, mourning is something we will all experience in our life in some form. It is sad to lose something or someone you love. It is hard to make peace with your dreams and plans not being a reality. In fact, there are somethings we could never make peace with on our own. Somethings we don't have the strength for. That is why we are so blessed to have God. To be able to lay down our heavy burdens and receive the strength, peace, forgiveness, and love we need. We need to remember in times of heartache that our God is with us through it all. He will carry our heavy burdens and heal our hearts.
Prayer:
Lord we thank you for your many blessings. We thank you that you are always with us and that you are our comfort and peace Lord. Help us not to be consumed by sorrow and to trust you and turn to you for strength, in Jesus name we pray, Amen.
Verse:
“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Matthew 5:4 ESV
