We Need Comfort

-August 18, 2024-

Good morning beloved, happy Lord’s Day,

“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 to those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.”

(2 Corinthians 1:3-4).

I stand in need of comfort, for I lost my dear Sylvia, my second mother, I love so much. We grieve over her loss, but not like the world, for our hope is in Christ. She with the Lord right now.

Sylvia was my mother, my teacher, my counselor, and my friend. She taught the women of our church and was so knowledgeable in the Word, especially of the end times. She also taught a revelation seminar several times over the years.

She was like a mother to every member of our church family. We love her miss her so much. There will never be another Sylvia. She and her husband Adel founded our church in 1977.

Losing a loved one is so hard, but God comforts us, and so do the members of our church. We have a great support system. I thank the Lord for the phone calls, cards, emails, and texts I have received. They mean so much to me.

God comforts us so that we can comfort others who are suffering. No one likes death, but we have to face it. The Lord will get us through it by His mercy and grace.

Have a blessed Lord’s Day in worship and the Word. Stay safe and healthy.

Wounded hearts are slow to heal; only God can heal them in His time.
