When you feel
Grieving
Grief is allowed to take its time. Sit with these words gently.
“The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.”
“Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.”
“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain.”
A prayer to borrow
God of comfort, I miss what I have lost. Stay with me in the ache, and hold what I cannot hold.
