To the Family of Mr. Criag P. Patterson,
He is the source of every mercy and the God who comforts us.
2 Corinthians 1:3
Comfort is a rare and wonderful gift. Perhaps it was somthing as simple as a skinned knee, but every family member will take it seriously and give comfort at a time such as these. Such memories are warm and wonderful. Yet sometimes the comfort of a loved one isn't enough. Sometimes the hurt is so deep than no human words can help relieve the pain and no mere bandage can cover the damage. That's when we need to look beyond human comfort to something much more effective-the comfort of God. This isn't some mystical, faraway concept. God really does provide comfort to those who call upon Him in times of need. The trouble is that many people are so busy blaming God for their troubles that they don't even realize how close He is and how much He wants to comfort them. Unlike human comfort, which feels good for a moment, God's comfort supplies strength for a lifetime. We must remember that God doesn't promise you a life without difficulities, but He does promise that He will always be with you.
