Sorry for being M.I.A. for the past four days. Monday was my 73rd birthday and wanted to celebrate it being devoted to my dear OH who enjoyed it immensely as we no longer go anywhere considering the dear’s health and mental condition. On Tuesday, was banking day, which I haven’t done in three months where I spent about an hour, depositing checks and other financials due to benefits becoming exhausted for my dear’s LTC insurance in about six weeks. Wednesday and yesterday was bed rest as I wound up again with flu-like symptoms having gone out Tuesday with all of the cold, wet weather. Now, to the post I missed on posting for the past several days.
Now that I’m a 73-year-old faith-driven Christian woman after celebrating another birthday and an online preacher who has gained a great deal of knowledge throughout my journey to becoming who I am today, I want everyone reading this to know that the Lord is our Comforter and our Healer. We need to be thanking Him for helping us in our times of need. As we weep, He collects our tears and holds us tight. We can feel His hand comforting us as we go through the challenges and trials we encounter in our lives.
Therefore, for today’s reflection, the topic I’ve chosen for my blog deals with us being grateful for the comfort the Lord continuously gives us.
“You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book.”
The knowledge of us knowing what the Lord is capable of doing in comforting others that we wind up beseeching the Lord of the following, which we can read is found in PSALM 39:12 [NLT]
“Hear my prayer, O LORD! Listen to my cries for help! Don’t ignore my tears. For I am your guest— a traveler passing through, as my ancestors were before me.”
We can hear His soothing voice helping us. As we let go, He provides us with greater hope. In His divine presence, there is fullness of joy. We need to be clinging to Him even more to find comfort in His open arms of grace.
We need to remember what is written in 1 PETER 2:11-12 [NKJV]:
[11] “Beloved, I beg you as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,”
[12] having your conduct honorable among the Gentiles, that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by your good works which they observe, glorify God in the day of visitation.”
As Christians, we always know that the Lord is our ray of sunshine and our Physician, who is forever assisting us in times of need. Whenever we face our confrontations, we can sense the Lord’s presence comforting us through them. We can listen carefully to the Lord’s comforting voice, assisting us along the way with an increased hope that we will triumph over anything we get faced with.
I would love to read your feedback and comments.
Now, have a BLESSED WEEKEND, my dear Sisters/Brothers-in-Christ, with your loving families from me and my dear OH of the past 30 years !!! 😊 😊 😊
