Day 142 of 365

God Comforts Like a Mother

“As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.”

Isaiah 66:13 (KJV) |

What This Means for You

God uses the picture of a mother comforting her child. If you had a mother who comforted you well, this verse makes sense immediately. If you did not, it tells you what God is offering to be for you. His comfort is tender, close, and personal.

Try This Today

Sit somewhere quiet for five minutes. Close your eyes and picture God comforting you the way a loving mother would hold a hurting child. Tell Him what hurts. Let yourself be held.
