8 Bible Verses about Benefits Of Sadness

Sorrow is better than laughter, because the heart is made better through trouble.

True sacrifice to God is a broken spirit. A broken and chastened heart, God, you will not despise.

Now I am happy, not because you had such sorrow, but because your sorrow led you to repent. For you were sorry in a godly way, and so you were not hurt by us in any way. For having sorrow in a godly way results in repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regrets. But the sorrow of the world produces death. See what great earnestness godly sorrow has produced in you! How ready you are to clear yourselves, how indignant, how alarmed, how full of longing and enthusiasm, how eager to seek justice! In every way you have demonstrated that you are innocent in this matter.

as sorrowful and yet always rejoicing, as poor and yet enriching many, as having nothing and yet possessing everything.

How blessed are you who are hungry now, because you will be satisfied! How blessed are you who are crying now, because you will laugh!

and the LORD's ransomed ones will return and enter Zion with singing. Everlasting joy will rest upon their heads, gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and mourning will flee away."
