God,
This is the first November without her. Everyone is planning dinners, and I'm dreading the empty chair. I don't need anyone to fix it. I just need You to sit with me in it. Carry me through the weeks ahead, one day at a time.
In Jesus' name, Amen.

Bible verses for comfort in grief
The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
