About the comfort of God…
Matthew 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. (NIV)
Sometimes in life there is grief and sorrow. Sometimes it seems the grief and sorrow in
life never end. However, we have a caring and compassionate Shepherd who cares for us and
who looks out for us. Although Jesus is not visible to our naked eye, we can still see Him
with our heart. In our times of grief and sorrow, He is with us. He is with all those who
need Him and who seek Him. He comforts all those who are grieving if they turn to Him. For
the coming sorrows of the future, we know He will be with us. For those who grieve in the
present, our prayers and our love brings Him closer to them. The terrible hurt of those
who grieve does not go without His notice. The hurt of the grieving is always within His
tender touch. In every heart that hurts, there lives the Door who opens to the place where
angels live. In every heart that hurts, there lives the Door who opens to supernatural
glory and grace. In every heart that hurts, there lives the Door who opens to a Light that
shines on every tomorrow. Through our tears, we can see through the Door into spiritual
realms where no tears are ever shed. Through our tears, we can see through the Door to our
future home. We do not often know how and why God works as He does, but we can testify
that when our lives are filled with rain, He brings the sun. We can testify that when we
are empty He brings His fullness. We can testify that when we are lonely, He is present.
