—2 Corinthians 1:3-11
by: Kay Samuels.
This sounds to me like a chain reaction. The Lord comforts us so that we can comfort others and they in turn comfort others—and so the chain reaction should continue. Let’s make sure that we do not break the chain. Let’s do our part to bring comfort to others. God bringing us comfort does not mean all our troubles go away. Sometimes we get strength, encouragement, and hope to deal with the troubles. Every trial we overcome produces growth to help overcome the next one. We can provide comfort in the form of relief to our brothers and sisters in times of their trouble. The trials we encounter will help us to encourage others.
