????Blessed are those who mourn—they will be comforted❣️ Jesus said blessings come out of mourning. The very thought is ridiculous to some; but from Paul’s perspective, God uses weaknesses and is present in pain. This truth is revolutionary. In the midst of suffering, the mourner abandons pretense and self-consciousness. There we meet God and one another in honest ways that open the doors to redemption when we are willing. “Corinthians 7”
