January 16 Grief Support Devotional: “God Is With You in Every Memory”

🌿 January 16 Grief Support Devotional: “God Is With You in Every Memory”

Scripture:

“I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.”— Hebrews 13:5 (KJV)

Memories can be both a comfort and a challenge in grief.Some bring warmth and gratitude.Others bring tears and longing.Many arrive unexpectedly—through a sound, a scent, a place, or a quiet moment.

But here is a truth your heart needs today:God is with you in every memory.

He is present when a memory makes you smile.He is present when one brings tears.He is present when the remembering feels heavy.

God does not step away when the past rises up. He stands beside you, steady and faithful, reminding you that you are not reliving those moments alone. His presence anchors you when memories feel overwhelming and comforts you when emotions surface.

You don’t need to push memories away to heal.You don’t need to fear them.God walks with you through remembering—helping you carry the love without being crushed by the loss.

Today, when memories come, pause and breathe. Invite God into that space. Let Him surround you with peace and remind you that His promise still stands:

He will never leave you.He will never forsake you.Not in grief.Not in remembrance.Not ever.

💛 Prayer:

Lord,Thank You for walking with me through every memory. When remembering feels heavy, help me feel Your presence and peace. Remind me that I am not alone in the past, the present, or the days ahead. Hold my heart gently today.In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
