Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted (Matthew 5:4)
What does mourn mean ? mourn means mourn for one’s sins, see one’s own sins, and mourn for the sins, confess and repent before God, receive God’s forgiveness, and receive God’s comfort.
For this is what the high and exalted One says– he who lives forever, whose name is holy: “I live in a high and holy place, but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite. (Isaiah 57:15)
Here it says that God lives with the contrite and humble in heart, with people who mourn for their sins. When God is with us, we will receive God’s comfort, and God’s joy, even if it is a small sin, we should confess to the Lord and repent.
Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death. (2 Corinthians 7:10)
Here we see that there are two kinds of sorrows. One is Godly sorrow, one mourns for one’s sins, confesses one’s sins and repents, and receives forgiveness from God, leads to salvation. The other is worldly sorrow, sorrow for worldly things which brings death.
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. (Revelation 21:4)
In the future, God will live with His people in the new heaven and new earth, there will be no more tears, no more sorrow, no more pain, no more death, everything will be new. Thank and praise the Lord.
May God bless you and your family.
