May I Be A Comforter

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1 [4] who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.:

Observation: I use this scripture when I’m speaking of the testimony God has given me, that the pain of my past is no longer painful, because there is a purpose for it. That the comfort God has given me through my trials is now a useful tool in His hands to touch the lives of others. It’s amazing a life I hated before my Lord entered my life, a life I tried to end over and over again is now being used to open the eyes of others to my Lord. Now this life I hated I wouldn’t change for anything and would suffer it all over again to be where I am now, usable for God.

Application: To continue using my testimony for God’s glory and not give up. To touch as many lives as I can with what God has done for me and to make a difference in the kingdom of God. Only God knows who will be touched by my testimony of His love. May it strengthen those who know Him and draw the ones that don’t. My most precious asset is my testimony and it be used to help others on their journey before I go home.

Prayer: Dear Lord I thank you for your comfort, for not giving up on this sinner and I ask you to direct my life that this testimony will be used for your glory. Direct me each day and draw me nearer to you.
