Proverbs 14.10
The heart knows its own bitterness,
And a stranger does not share its joy.
Proverbs 14.13
Even in laughter the heart may be in pain,
And the end of joy may be grief.
Romans 8.28
And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
Romans 8.35-39
Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
Just as it is written,
“FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE BEING PUT TO DEATH ALL DAY LONG;
WE WERE CONSIDERED AS SHEEP TO BE SLAUGHTERED.”
But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.
For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
