A Daily Devotion For Tuesday, January 18

2 Corinthians 1: 3-4

Praise be to the God and 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.

I have never really thought about comforting others in this way. It is our strength as Christian believers which allows us to give this particular comfort. It is the Holy Spirit, living in us. What if I were to remember this, throughout the day, and specifically ask God to use me to give comfort? Would my work be more effective? Might someone experience a different sort of peace?

Holy Father, you are abundantly generous and full of peace and comfort. Help me to pass this on to others in my “everyday“, but especially in my work. Amen
