Ch. 281 - Assuagement

' "Comfort, comfort my people," says your God. '
[Isaiah 40:1]

15. September 2010 Edit:

Context aside... this is a great, little verse.
There's not a lot that I desire or even need to say.
The fact that the Lord my God offers comfort is wondrous. And the fact that the verse says He offers it to His people is beautiful.
He does not desire anxiety, doubt, worry, fear [other than of Himself, perhaps...], etc. upon us. Our God is loving and gracious and kind. Compassionate. Merciful.
Am I not blessed to know such a good God?
