Are you carrying the weight of loss today? In this episode of Back to the Bible Daily, Braden Pedersen speaks gently to grieving hearts and shows how Scripture meets sorrow with nearness, blessing, and comfort.

Read: Read Psalm 34:18, Matthew 5:4, and 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 aloud. Reflect: Where do you feel God drawing near in your pain? Journal one memory or image that surfaces today.
