THERE IS COMFORT FOR YOU.

JUST THINKING :

One time or the other, we all have sought comfort. Whether it is the loss of a loved one, loss of job, loss of money, valuables, and investments, stressful moments, and  loss of a great opportunities, we all have had a fair share of pain, discomforter, insights, wrong accusations, death of a loved one and so on.
However, many people miss it when they are going through this phase of their lives. Some run to friends who may not be able to help them or comfort them. Some of the people we run to even need comfort as much as we do. Some indulge in self pity, habits, activities and even relationships that even worsen their pains. But you and i do not need to go that far because what we are looking for is around and with us.
Isaiah 9: 6 NKJV says "For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
For anyone seeking peace, Jesus is the Prince of peace and the peace giver. He is the life changer, way-maker, joy-giver and limit-breaker. If you are grieving, He will give you peace that passes all understanding in the face of all challenges you are going through. Men can comfort you, but some may do that and mock you about it in your absence. Some may give you a helping hand but man's help is limited but true and lasting help comes from God.
Isaiah 50: 7 NKJV says, “For the Lord God will help Me; Therefore I will not be disgraced; Therefore I have set My face like a flint, And I know that I will not be ashamed".
God's help is what you need. His help doesn't bring disgrace and shame and it will make you stand upright wherever you are and you go. But when some people help you, it may cause you more pain and shame because they may use it against you by telling others and even cursing you with it when anything happens. They may also broadcast it to everyone that they were the ones who helped you when you were down. Oops, that could be painful.
However, One of the ways God will help you is through his Spirit within you. The Holy Spirit will speak words to you that will comfort you. He will instruct you on what to do. He will also direct and reveal things to you. He will comfort you if only you will yield to him and do what He says. Before Jesus died He said He would give us another comforter or helper or advocate who will be with us forever since He will not be here with us physically. But the Holy Spirit will be with and in us whom He will send to us. (John 14: 6, 16:7).
Furthermore, 2 Corinthians 1:3‭-‬4 NKJV says, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 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".
God can comfort you by sending people into your life who will help you. He can also comfort you in other ways. But one of the reasons why He comforts you in your trying moments is for you to comfort others when they too are pained. When He comforts you, you will be able to comfort others with the comfort, strength, wisdom, love that He comforted you with. Truly, the comfort of God is really what you need.
