Comforting Verses For The Grieving

Let me share about this excerpt I just read a couple of days ago...

When the doctor told Phyllis that her husband had passed away, somewhere in her head, Phyllis heard teh words of 2 Corinthians 5:8 "Absent from the body.... present with the Lord," which assured her that her husband was in teh presence of Jesus. Then she heard Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heard and lean not on your own understanding, in all ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight." And she was comforted by the words of Psalm 34:18: "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted."

These words will be an encouragement and comfort for those who are in grief and who seeks solace from our Lord....
