The God of Comfort
It would be foolish of me to think I have the words to address what took place here in the United States this week. As I processed with a friend, she asked a poignant question: “Whose voice do we listen to amid chaos?”
So I leave you with God-breathed scripture penned by the Apostle Paul,
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds through Christ. Now if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation. And our hope for you is steadfast, because we know that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you will partake of the consolation.

2 Corinthians 1:3-7 NKJV
Friend, if you haven’t already, I encourage you to make some time this weekend to sit with the God of comfort, and process your emotions with Him. After all, He’s the safest place to be.
Until next week, be comforted by the One who comforts…
