Palavras de consolo
A Bíblia é repleta de palavras de consolo para os aflitos. Deus está perto dos que sofrem e promete enxugar toda lágrima, renovar a esperança e restaurar o coração partido.
Deus está conosco
O Senhor é refúgio e fortaleza. Mesmo no vale da sombra da morte, não precisamos temer — Ele está ao nosso lado para nos consolar.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
An Exuberant Declaration of Faith
The Lordis my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The Lordis the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?
The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed,
A refuge in times of trouble.
One thing I have desired of the Lord,
That will I seek:
That I may dwell in the house of the Lord
All the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of the Lord,
And to inquire in His temple.
For in the time of trouble
He shall hide me in His pavilion;
In the secret place of His tabernacle
He shall hide me;
He shall set me high upon a rock.
For You are my hope, O Lord God;
Youare my trust from my youth.
Consolação e esperança
Deus consola os humildes e exalta os abatidos. Ele nunca nos desamparará.
And the Lord, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed."
You must not fear them, for the Lord your God Himself fights for you.’
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."
He sets on high those who are lowly,
And those who mourn are lifted to safety.
Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace,
Descanso e renovação
Bem-aventurados os que choram, pois serão consolados. A Bíblia nos convida a descansar nos braços do Pai e encontrar paz para a alma.
Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
Show me a sign for good,
That those who hate me may see it and be ashamed,
Because You, Lord, have helped me and comforted me.
Let, I pray, Your merciful kindness be for my comfort,
According to Your word to Your servant.
When you lie down, you will not be afraid;
Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet.
Everything Has Its Time
To everything thereis a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:
A time to be born,
And a time to die;
A time to plant,
And a time to pluck whatis planted;
A time to kill,
And a time to heal;
A time to break down,
And a time to build up;
A time to weep,
And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn,
And a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones,
And a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace,
And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to gain,
And a time to lose;
A time to keep,
And a time to throw away;
A time to tear,
And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence,
And a time to speak;
A time to love,
And a time to hate;
A time of war,
And a time of peace.
