Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. — Matthew 5:4
Who hasn’t mourned? All of us have felt grief and loss, sorrow and pain. Here we have God’s heart response to our pain: comfort. The other day my little girl came into my office with a scarcely visible scratch on her foot. For me, it was a delight to pick her up and comfort her and let her know how much I care about her.
Do you want to find the heart of God? I don’t wish on you any new pain, but you may need to feel the pain that is already there to find the comforting heart of God. Our pain may seem like a great forest fire, but, when compared to the comfort of God, it is a smoldering wick falling into the ocean of God’s love.
