Life has its ups and downs and sometimes the downs can take the shape of a horrible event. There’s no way to prepare or foresee these terrible events, but it’s crucial to remain hopeful.
Grief is often linked to the loss of a loved one, however, you can experience grief due to a medical diagnosis, breakups, toxic relationships, falling out with a loved one, losing a job, feeling lost in life, etc. Grief is a natural process and it takes time to heal. However, some people hold on to grief for a long period of time.
Here are some Bible verses to read when experiencing grief:

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lode Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.”
