spiritual support

Soul's sustaining guidance

Spiritual support is help that addresses a person's faith, meaning, or inner life rather than their physical or practical needs.

It may come from clergy, chaplains, or caring individuals and often involves prayer, religious counsel, or simply being present during crisis.

Hospitals and hospices frequently offer spiritual support to patients facing serious illness or death: The chaplain provided spiritual support to the family.
