"The Comforter Has Come!"
Most of us would rather curl up in a warm comforter by a warm fireplace than fly on a plane or work in a tall building...no comfort zone there! We read the headlines, watch the Breaking News, read the rumors flying around the Web...there's no comfort there! We can consume all the chocolate ice cream and candy bars we want...and there's no lasting comfort there! Why??
Because the REAL "comfort zone" is not to be found in "things" on Planet Earth. Remember when Jesus went away? He promised His disciples, "I will not leave you comfortless. I will send the Comforter to you." Jesus keeps His promises--and He HAS sent the Comforter...the only One who can truly give us the warmth, the shelter, the peace and the comfort we need.
Needing comfort today? Look beyond the "comfort zones" of earth--try connecting with Heaven--and see what happens! For as you open God's Word, as you pray to Your Heavenly Father, as you play "praise and worship" music on your Sony, something wonderful will happen--the COMFORTER WILL COME...the Blessed Holy Spirit, God's gift to us all. He will fill your heart with comfort the world cannot give--and the world cannot take away! May He comfort YOUR heart this day!
...and that's just a faith-filled thought or two from my heart to yours!

A Christian crisis devotional in light of the tragedy of terrorism that shook the world on September 11, 2001, at the World Trade Center, New York City, and the Pentagon, Washington, D. C. May HIS Name be OUR "Tower of Strength" in the days ahead. Be uplifted as you read this devotional, published semi-weekly (each Tuesday and Friday) for your inspiration and encouragement.
An Encouraging Word for Times Like These
Everyone seems to be looking for the "comfort zone" these days! USAToday reports that people are forsaking the fancy dinners and desserts and returning to "Mom's meatloaf." It also reports, "If it feels good, and if it helps to calm the jitters, we're doing it: eating, spending money, cleaning..." The sale of teddy bears has increased as wonderful folk are sending "comfort bears" to those whose lives have been torn up by 9-11. Larry King Live ends each night's program with a patriotic number--the whole world is looking for comfort and try to give comfort these days...and we understand!

A song and a prayer for His all-sufficient grace
"Lord, my eyes have been turned lately to all the circumstances of life--around me, beyond me, within me--and it's a bit too much. Take it all Lord. I give You my past, my present and my future. In You I have hope and I turn my eyes from the things of earth to YOU, the author and finisher of my faith. Thank You for Your love, joy and peace--I will keep my eyes on YOU this day, In Jesus' Name, Amen."
