GO
It is a longing in me- to have comfort. Not necessarily the kind that is about the physical- though I would like that too. I am talking more the spiritual comfort that we get from the God of peace and love. Comfort from the King of kings that everything is going to be ok. That is what I am desiring today.
So many things can give false comfort and all too soon we find ourselves in lack of the real thing. I desire the Lord's comfort in grief and in trials and in tough times. Don't we all? How do we truly rest in it. For many years in my past, I would dish out counsel about how to get that comfort, but as the rubber meets the road in my life- resting in God's comfort is a difficult thing. The heart still aches, the sleepless nights still exist, and I sit before Him asking for comfort and His peace and come up empty.
I want to be set free from this- I want the comfort of the Lord that is life changing good and yet my DNA seems to be tied up in so much fretting. I don't have the answers. I mean I can say the answer is- more of Jesus- but I sit still with Him each day and ask for His help and yet no deliverance. So I will trust Him even without the comfort and maybe, just maybe it is on its way...
STOP
