Bible Verses that Bring Comfort

This post may contain affiliate or advertiser links. Read my full disclosure policy .

Since the death of Griffin, I have clung to Jesus.  I needed to constantly remind myself of His truth.  Without it, my grief would overcome me.   I wanted to keep a record of what has brought me comfort these last few weeks.  I pray these verses may be a  reminder of the HOPE we have in Jesus, especially when the circumstances of this life just seem too much.

ComfortVerses 600x400

My mourning isn't over yet, so this post will be a work in progress.  I pray God's truth will breath peace and comfort into you as you face the hardships of life.

(All verses are NIV translation, unless otherwise noted.)

 Proverbs 19:21

Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.

BIBLE VERSES FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT

Luke

Luke 1:45

Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!

John

John 10:10

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

 John 15:4

Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

Romans

Romans 5:3-5

Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

Romans 8:17-18

Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.  I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

Romans 8:28

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

2 Corinthians

2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.  For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.  So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Hebrews

Hebrews 11:1

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

    A dear friend’s infant son (19 days younger than my own) died suddenly in September. Three days after his death, I posted the following on my (generally very neglected) blog: https://tojesusirepair.com/?p=135 It has a mix of Scripture and my own thoughts. I hope that it can be an encouragement to you, and I am praying for you and your family. *hugs*
