Bible Verses for Counseling
Navigation

This list of verses that starts down HERE is designed for use in counseling someone who is going through a difficult, stressful time in his or her life.

  • That "someone" may be another person or it might be yourself.
  • Either way, may God bless you as you seek comfort and wisdom in His Holy Bible.

We also have another page (the Lap of God) that might be helpful during those periods when life is kicking you in the heart.

You Can Help - PLEASE Do!

We know of NO OTHER page like this on the web. Based on many e-mail messages we have received, we are fully convinced that this page is an essential ministry. We also know it is far from perfect.

Please help us in this ministry. Give us your ideas to make this page better and better...

  • If we haven't provided Bible verses that meet your particular needs, please ring the e-mail Bell and we'll try to add just those special verses that God wants for you.
  • We would GREATLY appreciate receiving your suggestions for expanding and improving this essential page.
  • We have included only the addresses of verses for counseling. We have not quoted the verses themselves. It would be a job of work to quote the verses but, if we get enough requests to do so, we WILL.
