The scripture for comfort on this page was gathered for grief and for the long stretches that follow it. 2 Corinthians 1 describes comfort as something passed along rather than stored, from those who have received it to those who need it now. Psalm 34 says God is near to the broken hearted, and Psalm 56 that he keeps count of tears. Isaiah 61 offers beauty for ashes. Several of these Bible verses for grief do not promise the trouble will lift, only that you are not carrying it alone, which is usually the more honest comfort.
