—Isaiah 40:1-5
by: Leota Stevens.
We hear much about comfort in our society. Egyptian cotton sheets, velour towels, and fluffy down quilts appeal to our senses and allow us the luxury of warmth and the delicate caressing of our often tired and worn physical bodies. While these pleasures offer temporary stimulation and comfort, they do not have any eternal value. The comfort that God extends through his mercy, compassion, and forgiveness, as evidenced in his word, stands forever.
