A Comfort Sermon

Duane Brooks

God is the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort. He meets us in our suffering and walks with us through every storm. We may not understand all the reasons for our sorrow, but we know this: we are not alone. We are held, heard, and never forsaken. In Christ, comfort flows to us and through us to others. Message based on 2 Corinthians 1:3-7

Quotes:
John Donne: No man is an island entire of itself.

William Barclay: God did not stop that accident at sea, but he did still the storm in my heart. So that somehow my wife and I came through that terrible time still on our own two feet.

John Henry: God does not comfort us to make us comfortable. He comforts us to make us comforters.

Duane Brooks: We can weep with those who weep. We don't have to explain it. We don't have to have all the answers. But we can say to those who are broken that they are not broken alone. Because we feel very deeply the loss that they feel, because that's the way our Heavenly Father is.
