The Source Of Comfort
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of sympathy (pity and mercy) and the God [Who is the Source] of every comfort (consolation and encouragement), Who comforts (consoles and encourages) us in every trouble (calamity and affliction), so that we may also be able to comfort (console and encourage) those who are in any kind of trouble or distress, with the comfort (consolation and encouragement) with which we ourselves are comforted (consoled and encouraged) by God.” The God of all comfort and the Prince of peace keep our security in check. Looking at your problems from outside the box, gives a better perspective of seeing the hand of God in us. When we are in the heat of a fiery trial, it could be hard to maneuver through the smoke. Having that deep down realization of the God of comfort and the Prince of peace in our lives puts us not only mentally but physically in the right position for victory. He is our Father and wants nothing less for us than an abundant life. In that abundant life, there’s unnecessary drama, stress, or worry. We can experience the peace of God that passes all understanding as we accept the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who is the source of our greatest comfort in life.
