Words of
sympathy
Christians also go through situations where only words of sympathy are able to
lessen their grief. Words of encouragement for Christians
in such situations include “Time will heal all wounds”. Even though some feel that these words
are hurtful and undermine the feelings of grief, there is truth in them. Telling the person that
you are really sorry for their loss will assure them that the person is truly gone. Most
mourners find it hard to accept that a loved one is gone.Reminiscing about the good
timesyou had with the deceased will help bring a smile
to the person and would probably get them talking.
A verse from the scripture that you can use is
Matthew 5:4. This verse gives the permission to mourners that they should mourn because will be
there to comfort them.
When you are sick or in pain
When people are sick they need encouraging words to help them cope with
their sickness. Being sick limits you to certain things; either you stay indoors throughout the
day or are not able to walk long distances. Words of encouragement for Christians who could be
in such situation include telling them that the sickness is not a temporal
one. Smiling and being
optimistic are some of the things that will lead
to a speedy recovery.
There are plenty of encouraging verses from the Bible that can help anyone to deal with different situations in their
lives. Averse form the bible in Jeremiah 30:17 says that the Lord will restore us with health
and heal our wounds.
