Many think that when God comforts us, our troubles should go away. But if that were always so, people would turn to God only out of a desire to be relieved of pain and not out of love for him. We must understand that being “comforted” can also mean receiving strength, encouragement, and hope to deal with our troubles. The more we suffer, the more comfort God gives us. If you are feeling overwhelmed, allow God to comfort you. Remember that every trial you endure will help you comfort other people who are suffering similar troubles.

PRAYER
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank You for Your comfort when my heart is heavy.
Father, I know You are there for me when no one else seems to care.
May my heart be open to those who need the love of Christ.
Give me the opportunity to pass Your comfort on to those in need of Your strength so they may have the healing to their wound, grief, hurt, fear, loss and disappointment.
Let them sense Your presence and Your peace.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
