An Opportunity
to Bless Others
“…who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to
comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.” 2 Corinthians 1:4
When we are experiencing severe trials, it is easy for us to
get self absorbed. In fact, we tend to forget about other people altogether
because we are so focused on ourselves. God always shows Himself to be bigger
than our problems by comforting and encouraging us in the midst of them, and delivering
us through or out of them.
Through our trials, we can become a source of blessing to
others by offering comfort and encouragement. Just as God has encouraged us, we
also can encourage others.
Thought for the Day: In the midst of your
suffering you can bless others.
