Look to God's word in Scripture when you're grieving a relationship.

January can be a strange time. People often have a desire to start the new year afresh. Sometimes that might lead to significant life decisions, such as choosing to end a relationship.

While these decisions might be for the best, they nonetheless often leave people heartbroken. And that's a difficult way to kick off the new year.

To help put life in perspective, to find inner happiness and peace, it's worth turning to Scripture for a little support and inspiration. So we've selected some great quotes from the Bible to help broken hearts feel a little less raw, and to help you remember that there's always hope around the corner. Your Heavenly Father is always by your side, and who knows where your journey will lead!
