Through the Pain 

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

The Greek word translated mourn, pentheō, means to grieve deeply—to experience profound, gut-level sorrow. It is the grief of loss, death, injustice, and devastating brokenness. This is not mild sadness. It is honest pain.

Witnessing human suffering is painful, especially when that suffering is caused by human injustice. To avoid that pain, many of us try to explain it away, numb ourselves to it, or harden our hearts and say, this is just the way things are.

But this blessing calls us not to look away. Mourning is often the doorway to repentance, healing, restoration, and transformation. We do not reach the other side without going through it.

Blessed are we when we grieve what is broken—in ourselves, in others, and in the world. God meets us in our grief, and the comfort of God’s presence carries the power of redemption, restoration, and resurrection.
