II Corinthians 1:3-4- KJV-“Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;4-who comforted 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.”
God is the God of all comfort. He understands or heartaches and troubles.
I made it, yet through another Christmas and the first Christmas without our son, who passed away April of 2004. I really dreaded the holidays. But God in his mercy filled the void that year, After eleven years of not knowing where our granddaughter was, we heard from her. She stated that she wanted to come see us and her dad (our oldest son). She came and spent Christmas with us.
Prayer thought—Thank you Lord for surrounding me with your love. I need you today. To God be the glory!
