Comforting

Comfort, it is a concept that can be interpreted in many different ways. It can be achieved by the simplest of actions, or smallest words. Comfort is acquired in various ways and endures for an unknown amount of time. However this word is perceived it is most definitely a positive aspect.

Just think about how someone has comforted you or you felt at peace and had great satisfaction and knew that everything would be ok.

A time that comes to my mind is when I was lying on the operating table, anxious and nervous, and I was quickly put at ease when the nurse gently stroked my hair until I fell asleep.

Although there is not always a person there to hold you and stroke your hair, or physically help you in someway, there is One who can provide an even greater comfort. He provides your heart with a great peace and a calmness that can only be explained as something from God. He comforts you in your time of need and fills your soul with great joy. How awesome is it that we can call His name and He always hears? How wonderful is it that He is always by our side and never leaves? How amazing is it to have someone know your innermost thoughts and still love you just the same? What a faithful friend who provides such comfort and love!

Here is a beautiful song that my friend recommended and she said to picture God singing this to us.

My Beloved

Kari Jobe

You're My Beloved
You're My Bride
To sing over you is My delight
Come away with Me My love

You're Beautiful to Me
So beautiful to Me

Under My mercy
Come and wait
Till we are standing face to face
I see no stain on you
My child

You're Beautiful to Me
So Beautiful to Me

I sing over you My song of peace
Cast all your care down at My feet
Come and find your rest in Me

I'll breathe My life inside of you
I'll bear you up on eagle's wings
And hide you in the shadow of My strength
I'll take you to My quiet waters
I'll restore your soul
Come rest in Me and be made whole

You're My beloved
You're My Bride
To sing over you is my delight
Come away with me my love
