“Experiences of comfort and guidance in the words of scripture confirm God’s abounding love and “tender mercies” each day. Words from strangers in times of deep depression point to love of God and caring people. Road of life has its ups and downs. God is on the road with us. Thanks for your meditation today!”
Thanks for entering the conversation. Your comment about “words from strangers in times of deep depression point to God.” Is a perfect example of how it all works.
God uses his children to bring his love into our everyday circumstances. And often the person that was kind wasn’t even aware that her/his words had such a powerful affect of comfort for you.
It is amazing how often it happens.
As I look back over my ministry, and life before ministry, I can remember others who were grateful to me for things I said or did that help them along their way.
I think that is what God meant when he told Abraham that he was blessed to be a blessing (Gen. 12:2)
We are all meant to be a blessing to others in God’s name. And we do that in the simple ordinary ways we live, and speak.
It doesn’t take an elegantly articulate person to be a blessing.
You don’t have to be extraordinarily gifted.
You just have to be yourself.
God does the rest.
