A Promise to Those Who Mourn
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted."Matthew 5:4
Reflection
Jesus did not say stop crying. He promised comfort for whoever cries. That is different, and much better.
Prayer
Jesus, comfort my heart today. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
- Is it wrong to cry?
- What did Jesus promise to those who mourn?
- Who comforts you when you are sad?
