As i ponder on how GOD's heart was broken time and time again and yet he still promises us healing.
Even Paul in Ephesians was so overwhelmed as he thought of the wisdom and scope of GOD's plan that he fell to his knees and prayed to the FATHER:
Paul's prayer
I pray that from HIS glorious unlimited resources HE will give you mighty inner strength through HIS Holy Spirit, and I pray that CHRIST will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in HIM. May your roots go down deep into the soil of GOD's marvelous love, and may you have the power to understand as all GOD's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep HIS love really is . May you experience the love of CHRIST, though it is so great you will never fully understand it. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from GOD. Now glory be to GOD! By HIS mighty power at work within us , HE is able to accomplish infinately more than we would ever dare to ask or give hope. May HE be given the glory in the church and in CHRIST JESUS forever and ever through endless ages. Amen
Ephesians 3 v 14-21
Even the Psamist David
The LORD hears his people when they call to HIM for help. HE rescues them from all their troubles. The LORD is close to the brokenhearted: HE rescues those who are crushed in Spirit. The righteous face may troubles but the LORD rescues them frome each and every one.
Psalm 34 v 17-19
GOD offers comfort to all:
All praise to the GOD and FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST. HE is the source of every mercy and the GOD who comforts us. HE comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort others. When others are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort GOD has given us.
You can be sure the more we suffer for CHRIST the more GOD will shower us with HIS comfort through CHRIST.
2 Corinthians 1 v 3-5
"A ministry of comfort is born from trouble, but those in trouble must be bathed in prayer. There is a comfort, born in others' prayers, that always lift the Spirit, strengthens the will, and sets the heart on fire for GOD. NONE of this could happen without troubles."
