Prayer for comfort and solace in times of grief

Find comfort in God's presence during grief and loss.

A Short Prayer

"Dear God, be my rock in times of sorrow. Hold me close and comfort me with the truth of Psalm 34:18. "The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.""

A Deeper Prayer

Dear heavenly Father, in times of grief, I'm reminded of Your unfailing love and care for me. You promise to be near to the brokenhearted and to save the crushed in spirit. I pray that You will be my refuge and my strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1).
