"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God." -II Corinthians 1:3-4 (NIV)
Throughout life we are going to experience highs and lows. There will be times to celebrate and rejoice and times that require comfort and strength. During our low times, it is good to have others that can support us and it is good to support others. Either way, we need to have a source of strength and comfort!
God is that source of comfort and strength. We can take the strength and comfort that we receive from Him and use it to comfort others. By drawing close to God, we can feel His presence in our lives, then, as others need comfort, we can show God's love, support, and comfort. We can receive comfort during our own troubles and we can share God's comfort when others are in need. God has shared comfort and strength with us so we can share Him with others!
Take the comfort God has provided you and share it with others in need!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for comforting me and for providing strength and guidance. Help me to share Your comfort with others. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
