Words of Comfort

A friend recently contacted me, asking for counsel and encouragement on an issue she has been facing. While I want to help people, I don't feel adequate to give much advice, and I feel that my words of comfort sound insincere (though they are heartfelt). So, I've taken a new approach. Who better to give advice, counsel, and comfort than the Master himself?

A scripture came to mind, and so I shared it with her.

"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30

Could there be any better words of comfort than this?
