2025-07-27: Pastor Mark Quist – GOSPEL LIFE: Comfort – Where Can I Get Me Some?
Here we go! A thematic cruise through 2nd Corinthians! We begin with COMFORT. Right from chapter 1 Paul speaks about Comfort, “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion, and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.” Wow – this is profound right out of the gate.
Everyone has troubles. But where can we get some comfort? Paul says our comfort is found in ‘the God of all comfort, who is the father of compassion and all comfort. But there is more, not only am I comforted, but then I in turn can comfort others.
It also says something about my troubles themselves – they are not without purpose. It’s a powerful purpose to be able to be a presence with someone in their trouble… how much more present one can be when one has received the comfort of God in their trouble.
This is something to ponder when we are suffering, in trial, or having troubles,
See you Sunday as we explore Paul’s teaching on comfort from 2 Corinthians,
