Matthew 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted.
I believe this verse goes so much further than we read on the surface; I believe this verse talks of all the mourning in our lives and not just the mourning for people who have died.
If we are willing to mourn for all the evil, sin, wrong-doing and other negative things in ours and other people’s lives, then we shall be able to look for and find comfort from God.
God wants us to be able to give things to Him and to lessen the burden on our lives.
His comfort comes from loving and supporting us when everything around us seems to be falling apart!
