Trust and Comfort

Jesus said while speaking to his disciples…

“Do not let your hearts be troubled.  Trust in God; trust also in me.  In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you.  I am going there to prepare a place for you.  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.  You know the way to the place where I am going.”

John 14:1-4

Comfort

2012-07-28_06-10-38_909 (2)

As we travel on the journey of life there are times when trouble will come and we will suffer, during these times we also will be comforted by God…as we learn from these experiences we are better prepared to share the comfort we receive with others.  We are comforted so in turn we can comfort others…we are blessed so that we can be a blessing.

“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, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.”

2 Corinthians 1:3-4
