Matthew 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

Commentary:

So many times we find ourselves feeling guilt because we hurt after a loss of someone we love or our job, etc. It seems that as Christians, the image of someone strong in faith takes the form of someone without emotions. Christ tells us that it is OK to mourn for our loss because when we do, we will be comforted. Our comfort will come through the hands of other Christians around us and through the great gift of the Holy Spirit.
