Comfort My Heart
Often we find ourselves in circumstances where we need comfort. God, like a shepherd tending a flock with a staff, places a hand on us. God touches our hearts when we need it most, and we feel more at peace. God’s peace keeps us steady in our trials. We’re able to move through difficult times, temptations, doubt, and fear.
Sometimes God’s comfort comes to us through our hearing or reading a passage of scripture. Or we may receive help and support from another believer. Many times God speaks through the Spirit in answer to prayer. However the help comes, we can always trust that God’s comfort will steady us.
Dear Lord, help us to remember that you offer the peace and comfort we need to get through life’s trials. Amen.

Youth were inspired by their camping experience.
People are writing notes for shut-ins.
‘Disaster Buckets’ are being filled.
John Greer is the ‘poster boy’ for his treatment at Moffitt Cancer Center.
Some of our troops are out of Iraq.
Every home is specially blessed when God becomes a daily guest.

Every day I will praise you and extol your name forever and ever. Psalm 145:2

Today and everyday put out the welcome mat for Jesus.
Invite him to enter each heart and home.

“Blessed are those who mourn….
For Johnny Yates, Janet Humphrey, Vickie Hewitson, Suzanne Dunlap
….for they will be comforted.”
SEEK BLESSINGS FOR OTHERS!
We trust God to watch over, protect, and bless those we pray for today, according to His will…
For peace and reconciliation, our country and our troops, the homeless and hungry, those with financial concerns, the oil spill clean-up efforts, those who mourn…
