It’s far too easy to get lost and discouraged in the whirlwind of life’s events. However, God loves us unconditionally, despite the fact that we fail Him everyday. The best comfort comes from above.

1. Ephesians 3:20

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.

2. Psalm 34:18

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those whose spirits are crushed.

3. Isaiah 40:31

But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.

4. John 16:33

I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.

5. Revelation 21:4

He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.

6. John 13:7

Jesus replied, “You don’t understand now what I am doing, but someday you will.”

7. Psalm 93:4

But mightier than the violent raging of the seas, mightier than the breakers on the shore—the Lord above is mightier than these!

8. Isaiah 46:4

I will be your God throughout your lifetime—until your hair is white with age.I made you, and I will care for you.I will carry you along and save you.

9. 2 Timothy 1:7

For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.

10. John 14:27

I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.

11. Romans 8:38-39

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.
