Devotionals - Five minutes at the pump

Fuel-stop devotionals.

Written to be read in the time it takes to fill two tanks. A new one every day, drawn from a year's worth of readings — scripture, a thought to chew on, and a prayer.

Blessed Are Those Who MournMatthew 5:4
No. 51
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.Matthew 5:4

Grief is love with nowhere to go. When we lose someone or something precious, the pain is real and deep. Jesus does not tell us to suppress grief or get over it quickly. He blesses those who mourn and promises comfort. Allow yourself to grieve, but know that God is near and will heal your wounds in His time.

Reflect

Is there a loss — a person, a dream, a season — that you have not yet allowed yourself to grieve fully?

Prayer

God, my heart is breaking. Comfort me in this pain. Hold me close and heal my broken heart. Give me hope beyond this grief. Amen.
