Palavras de conforto
Deus é o Deus de todo conforto. Ele consola os que choram, restaura os quebrantados e promete que a dor presente dará lugar à alegria eterna.
O Deus de toda consolação
Bendito seja o Deus e Pai de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo, Pai das misericórdias e Deus de toda consolação, que nos consola em todas as tribulações.

Promessas de restauração
Deus sarará o quebrantado de coração e atará as suas feridas. Quem semeia em lágrimas, colherá com júbilo.
Paz e descanso
Jesus disse: 'Vinde a mim, todos os cansados e sobrecarregados, e eu vos aliviarei.' A paz de Deus que excede todo entendimento guarda o coração.
