Comfort for the Hurt No One Else Can Reach
Hurting, and the people who love you don’t know what to say? Grief has a way of making us feel completely alone, even when we’re surrounded by people who care.
In this episode, Rachel takes us into Day 37 of Praying through Life’s Battles, “The Way He Comforts You,” and 2 Corinthians 1:3-4. She shares the Tuesday morning phone call when her mom said the word leukemia, and how praising God as her Comforter became her lifeline over the next six months. You’ll also hear the story of her friend Molly Huffman, who lost her first marriage, a baby to miscarriage, and her mom, and turned to God as her Comforter through every loss.
You’ll discover:
- How to pray when the people around you can’t reach the place where it hurts
- What Paul meant when he called God “the God of all comfort”
- Why praise opens your heart to the comfort God is already offering
- A prayer of praise you can pray today, even through tears
You don’t have to carry this alone. The God of all comfort is already moving toward you.
