2 Corinthians 1:3-5 (New International Version)
The 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 have received from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.
When I read this verse, I am reminded that God says that He comforts us in “all” our trouble so that we can comfort those in “any” trouble.
To me that means that if you have ever needed the comfort of God for any reason in your life then you are qualified to be a comforter to someone else.
And if you are in a time of needing comfort right now, this verse promises that there is a God who longs to be just that for you…a Comforter.
To be honest, I think we all need a Comforter every day, don’t you? I know I do.
Praying that today you will allow God to be your best friend and Comforter. And if you see a friend in need, help them find this same best friend and Comforter in their life,
In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven! Email me anytime at 
This is fabulous…and so true…I think the hardest times for me is when I so need a hug (right now) and don’t know where to get it…but God is there…listening…and showering blessings…
Love ya!
I did a small devotional on my blog today on this very verse! God IS the God of ALL comfort. Hallelujah!
