Comfort

a WORD from God's Book
______________________________________________________________

As Paul continued to insist on right relations with God and his people, about a life of moral discipline and the coming Judgment, Felix felt things getting a little too close for comfort and dismissed him. "That's enough for today. I'll call you back when it's convenient."

"Count yourself blessed every time someone cuts you down or throws you out, every time someone smears or blackens your name to discredit me. What it means is that the truth is too close for comfort and that that person is uncomfortable.

We have plenty of hard times that come from following the Messiah, but no more so than the good times of his healing comfort--we get a full measure of that, too.

So comfort and encourage each other with these words.

Now let your unfailing love comfort me, just as you promised me

May our Lord Jesus Christ and God our Father, who loved us and in his special favor, gave us everlasting comfort and good hope.

Acts 24:25 Luke 6:22 2 Corinthians 1:5 1 Thessalonians 4:18 Psalm 119:76 2 Thessalonians 2:16

God does not so much comfort us to make us comfortable, but to make us comforters.
