13 As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you; you shall be comforted in Jerusalem. ~ Isaiah 66:13
The LORD is close to the brokenhearted, and He comforts those who mourn. He even goes as far as to say that joy comes in the morning. Joy, comfort, and peace are all promised to us, but it’s up to us to accept and receive them. Even though something is promised to us, it doesn’t mean that we will automatically receive it.
So many of us miss out on joy, comfort, and peace because grief has a hold of us. It convinces us that we need to continue in our grief, or we’re betraying the one we’ve lost. It convinces us that we need to stay frozen and refuse to move on so that we can miss out on the plans God has for us.
Mourning should never last for more than the night. It should never be years of grieving and pain for all of those who belong to Christ; He will comfort us if we allow Him to.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Allow God To Comfort You.
