Bible Verses For A Rainy Day
A few weeks ago my husband went through surgery to remove a suspicious looking mole, and I had suddenly felt like I needed words of comfort from the Bible. But what verses to choose? I’d read so many uplifting words, but filled with panic and fear my mind felt blank.
Then I took a plane flight to the UK, and also wanted some verses to hand - even after all these years of flying, I still feel a little nervous. I wanted some reassuring words, that would speak to me right in that moment.
So I started to think about collecting Bible verses, storing them away for the times of struggle that will inevitably come.
So here’s a few Bible verses for rainy days, in English and Italian. If you have some favourites of your own you could look them up. This link is quite handy, as it gives you the verses in English and Italian if you just type in the one you are looking for. Somehow I set it up by accident without realising you could do this on Bible.com!

Venite a me, voi tutti, che siete affaticati e oppressi, e io vi ristorerò. Prendete il mio giogo sopra di voi e imparate da me, che sono mite e umile di cuore, e troverete ristoro per le vostre anime. Il mio giogo infatti è dolce e il mio carico leggero».

schiaccerai leoni e draghi.
