God Of All Comfort

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 receive from God. For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer.2 Corinthians 1:3-6

Death is a part of life and grieving is the process to get through it. You are born but you are going to die. No one knows when or what age and so the point is to live life to the fullest and serve God and not worry about it.

Losing someone close is very very difficult especially if out of the clear blue with a heart attack, stroke, car accident, murder, suicide. Even if prepared, the 'homegoing' time is still unsettling. You can not sit around speculating about it and worrying and conjuring up scenarios in your head.

If you have been through the grief process then perhaps you would be able to bring a bit of comfort to those dealing with it and those dreaded anniversary dates of the death as well. Some deal with it by silence and not liking to remember it so sending a card is not a good idea but others want to know people have not forgotten their loved one. Is there someone who you can reach out to today who may be having a difficult time? God cares and he can help you be a comforter.

PRAYER:Dear Lord I pray for anyone reading this today whose grief is still fresh. I pray you bring comfort as only you can. I pray for people to reach out and comfort those who re hurting with a God hug. I pray for healing of wounded hearts. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

NOTE: In memory of Robert Stevens, Madison, AL, husband of a dear Moms in Prayer sister Lamarr Stevens, who passed unexpectedly 1 September 2020.
