CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
My thoughts lately have been inhabited by what God wants us to learn through suffering. It seems that a recent rash of people I know have been going through difficult health struggles (cancer), or difficult domestic situations. I’ve drawn much comfort from meditating on “the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort”. The scripture below promises that two things will happen in and through our afflictions; 1) we will be comforted by that “Father of mercies, and God of all comfort”, and 2) we will be uniquely equipped to comfort others with the same comfort we received from the Father.
2 Corinthians 1:3-4 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.
*special prayers for the extended family of Malco; an uncle committed suicide; and for the father of Little John, who is awaiting a transplant donor; and for Fred, the father of Bailout, who is dealing with being in a cast and having to deal with new sores that have popped up.
MOLESKIN:
This was my first Q since 8.27.18. Not sure how it got to be that long, but it was good to be back on Q. I love struggling through something with brothers. Nothing is good alone.
