Mourning
Hear what the Spirit is saying to the church from the book of Matthew:
Matthew 5:4
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
(King James Version)
You’re blessed when you feel you’ve lost what is most dear to you. Only then can you be embraced by the One most dear to you.
(The Message)
Those who mourn are fortunate! for they shall be comforted.
(Living Bible)
How happy are those who know what sorrow means for they will be given courage and comfort!
(Phillips)
Those who have sorrow are happy, because they will be comforted.
(NLV)
This is the word of the Lord. Thanks be to God
