May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting comfort and hope which we don’t deserve, comfort your hearts with all comfort, and help you in every good thing you say and do. For the Lord hath comforted His people, and will have mercy on His afflicted. Jeremiah 31:13. I will turn their mourning into gladness. I will give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow.
