The Comforter

A person stood bedraggled and weeping, dressed in rags which once had been a beautiful garment. Now they stood alone, filthy and so broken that they no longer had the strength to take even one more step.

Father very gently and carefully picked up this very delicate and vulnerable soul. He lifted them up into His arms and carried them to a place of safety and shelter. He very gently removed their rags and bathed them in a bath that was full of His tears and oil, washing away all the filth and very gently cleansing their wounds. When he had finished, He wrapped the person up in a very big, warm comforter and let them simply sit on His knee, in front of a roaring fire. Nothing was demanded or asked, not even a word had been spoken between them. There was simply the love and the comfort that was poured into this broken one.

As the person nestled into the Father, accepting His love and comfort, they fell asleep in the loving arms of the Father, safe and secure from all the ravages of the past.

Today, allow the Father to bring His healing into your life. Allow Him to be your comforter and to wash away all your tears and the pain of the past. He will lift your weariness and bring you ALL comfort, so that you will be able to comfort others.

(NIV) Matthew 11:28-30

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.’

(NIV) 2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the 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 receive from God.

(NIV) 1 John 4:7

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
