9 Bible Verses about Despair
Most Relevant Verses
being afflicted in every thing but not distressed, being perplexed but not in despair,
For we wish you not to be ignorant, brothers, of our affliction which befell us in Asia, that we were exceedingly oppressed beyond our power, so that we despaired even of life;
being persecuted but not deserted, being cast down but not destroyed,
so that on the other hand you ought to forgive and comfort him, that he may not be overwhelmed with excessive sorrow.
but we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we might not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead,
who delivered us from so great a death and will deliver, in whom we hope that he will also still deliver,
For this is our rejoicing; the testimony of our conscience that in purity and godly sincerity, not with a carnal wisdom, but with a divine grace, we have conducted ourselves in the world, and most abundantly towards you.
