Comfort

Praise be to 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

For if I grieve you, who is left to make me glad but you whom I have grieved? I wrote as I did so that when I came I should not be distressed by those who ought to make me rejoice. I had confidence in all of you, that you would all share my joy. For I wrote you out of great distress and anguish of my heart and with many tears, not to grieve you but to let you know the depth of my love for you.

2 Corinthians 2: 2-4

-----

Just when I needed some reassurance and comforting God introduced me to a girl, who is now a good friend of mine and I'm SO thankful. When I read that verse it always takes me back to that time in my life when I felt like everything was falling apart. It was hard to keep faith because everything was happening so quickly. Just as fast as everything fell God was right there to build it back up. Through my hardships he built an even stronger foundation. If I never went through it I would've never experience the love and comfort I felt from God during that time. They say you can't truly enjoy the good until you've been through the bad. She came at the right time and I knew it was God sent. I have the best friends in the world. (:
