He Comforts


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... 2 Cor 1:3-4, NIV


God is the Father of compassion. When we're hurting, He's right there for us. He speaks to us through His Word, He listens as we lay out our pain to Him and He uses other people as a conduit for His compassion. He never leaves us alone to figure things out by ourselves. And then, He turns around and uses us to funnel His love to others in pain. We can look back at what we learned and share it with someone else.
