Hebrews 12:11
Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. |

Ecclesiastes 7:1-4
A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one's birth. It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart. Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better. The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth. |

Job 22:29
When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person. |

Proverbs 13:12
Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life. |
