“For the LORD will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her waste places; He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; Joy and gladness will be found in it, thanksgiving and the voice of melody.” (Isa 51:3)

When I am in despair, I look to King David and his words of wisdom in the book of Psalms.
