Comfort

Comforting Words. Browse by how you feel, or by a wisdom tradition. In Canada, the Suicide Crisis Helpline (988) is available 24/7. You can call or text anytime. This is a small, quiet resource, not a substitute for talking to someone. If things feel heavy, please reach out to the line above or someone you trust. Most texts are in plain modern language. Famous lines keep their original words; hover an underlined word to see a plain meaning. Emotional states: Overwhelmed, Anxious or afraid, Angry, Heavy or numb, Alone, Grieving, Not enough, Stuck, Tired or exhausted, Restless or unsettled, Guilty or ashamed, Uncertain or confused, In pain or unwell, Needing hope, Missing Home, Waiting, Heartbroken, Worried for someone, Addiction or craving, I don't know. Traditions: Stoic, Taoist, Buddhist, Hindu, Confucian, Christian gospels, Quran, Hymns and spirituals, Poetry, Philosophy, Eckhart Tolle, Nature and reflection, History and witness, Sufi, Sikh, Orthodox Christian, Jewish wisdom & scripture. You don't need an account. Nothing you read here is saved. We only count a few anonymous, general categories (like which feeling you chose), never your quotes or who you are.

Christian gospels

These texts include the Gospels and other Christian prayers and writings in public-domain translations. They are offered with respect, especially for those who mourn someone they love.

Most texts are in plain modern language. Famous lines keep their original words; hover an underlined word to see a plain meaning.

If you fall, do not stay down. Get up again. Rising after a fall can make you stronger than never having stumbled.

The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures and leads me beside still waters. Rest is part of his care.
