Chris.
The Lord is able to replace our mourning with Joy. This is the Lord’s Work. When we see or know people who are in mourning for some reason our best response is to accept them and to pray for them in our prayers. Trying to “cheer them up” is usually very empty for them. Only the Lord can replace mourning with Joy.
