“Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.” 2 Corinthians 1:4-6.

In times like these, an uplifting word, prayer, or kind deed is needed to guide us along our way… but there is nothing greater than the comfort, peace, and strength that we receive from the Lord; praise God that absolutely nobody can do me like Jesus- my friends there is sweet peace, and a wonderful rest to be found at the foot of cross! “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew” 11:28.

Jesus is our safe place and Comforter in all of our trials and tribulations. 2 Corinthians 1:4 states that blessings and honor goes to Him who is our Deliverer! “Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.” 2 Corinthians 1:4-6.

So, when the cares of this life  or circumstances beyond control begin to wear you down…remember, that it is onlu for a season…find consolation in knowing that you’re not alone…we’re all going through something, so let us also take the time to share an encouraging word, send a note, a text or drop a card in the mail – encouraging someone who may be feeling weak and weary by the burdens of life… “Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.” 1 Peter 4:12, 13.

And above all, let us keep our minds on Jesus, humbly acknowledging His loving plans to work things out and keep us safe through all of our trials and tribulations-He is the comforter and lover of our very souls! “Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.” 2 Corinthians 1:4-6.

J-E-S-U-S

J-esus brings me here by His will in this straight place; in that will I rejoice.

E-ven here He will keep me “in His love” and give me “grace and glory”

S-urely, He will make the trial “a blessing.” Teaching me lessons He wants me to learn.

U-nder the trial I will be quiet; for in His good time He will bring me out. Just how and when, only He knows best.

S-o, then I am here by God’s appointment, in His keeping, under His training, for His time, that I may glorify Him, and comfort others.    -Unknown.

My friends…there is purpose is our pain…Romans 8:28 holds true now and forever, find comfort in the word of the Lord: “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”

May God’s grace strengthen and keep us in perfect peace now and forever!
