OUR COMFORTER

“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 1:3, 4
King James Version

If ever we needed comforting, it is now.  Our world and even some of our homes are filled with violence and hatred.  Children run and hide because they are afraid of getting hit again.  However, we have hope because Jesus is coming back for us to take us to Heaven.   

Gordon Jensen wrote one of my favorite hymns “REDEMPTION DRAWETH NIGH”.  I love the words in this beautiful hymn.  “Signs of the times are everywhere. There's a brand new feeling in the air. Keep your eyes upon the eastern sky, Lift up your heads, redemption draweth nigh!”  One day there will be no more sorrow or heartaches.

If you are hurting, know that Jesus understands how you feel and He cares that you are hurting.  When Jesus was here on earth on the mission His Father had given Him, Jesus also was discouraged, brokenhearted and grew weary.  May God help us to comfort one another with the comfort that our Heavenly Father comforts us.
