“Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted.”

Matthew 5:4

Join me and eleven guest bloggers as we explore the concept of mourning over the next 31 Days, as we tread a well-worn path straight towards Jesus’ heart.

Sundays and weekdays will include raw, beautiful stories, deep studies of Scripture, and meaningful encouragement.  Saturdays will feature the artwork of Ramone Romero, a friend whose “Art For Jesus” encapsulates the mourning heart of a compassion-filled God.

Weeping may last for a night, the Scriptures say, but Joy comes in the morning.

Joy comes in the mourning, too.

Join us for the next 31 Days and we’ll show you why.

Come sing Survivor Songs.
