“Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope by grace, comfort and strengthen your hearts in every good work and word.” 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17(NASB)
We think of this blog as a means of bringing encouragement or comfort to those who read and follow it. But we recognize that it is not us who brings this comfort. The One who does is God Himself. We are reminded of this in the verses selected for today. Do you notice what kind of comfort our Lord gives? It is eternal comfort and good hope. Our hope is certain expectation from God who keeps giving comfort and strength day after day and it will never end. That is a promise. There are many ways God comforts us. We may find comfort through something we read in the Bible or when we see God answering our prayers. Perhaps it comes to us from a friend or even in a book or devotional such as this blog. No matter how, we are encouraged to go on living and believing, let's be thankful to God for He is the source of the eternal comfort available to us. That is encouraging.
