Jesus is always bringing comfort and, today, is no different. My father's health has once again taken a turn for the worst. Today, he stopped breathing for a few minutes and then started up, again. It is like an emotional roller coaster. We thought we may need to say goodbye; that may be the case. It has been a long and difficult journey to make with Dad these past three years. It would have been more difficult without the loving care of Hospice and our amazing spiritual family. But, it has also been a time of great comfort as we have been given the promise of the Comforter; the Spirit of Christ. Today, I was reminded that I do not need to go forward in my own strength. Jesus said, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." Matt 5:4

God desires that we would be confident people of faith; bold and passionate. This confidence is not in our own strength, but in the strength of Christ in us. What happens when a passionate and confident person relationally intersects or connects with The Insecure? Yikes...emotional gears grind that's what!
