Back to Treasures from J.R. Miller


"The Father of compassion — and the God of all comfort." 2 Corinthians 1:3

There is a blessing in true human sympathy. God sends our friends to us, to bring us little measures of His own love — little cupfuls of His grace. But He Himself is the only true comforter. His love alone — is great enough to fill our heart, and His hand alone — has skill to bind up our wounds.

However deep the sorrow may be — if we creep into God's bosom, and nestle there like a tired child in the mother's arms — God's love will enfold and embrace us, and flow into our heart — and we shall be comforted, satisfied.

"As a mother comforts her child — so will I comfort you." Isaiah 66:13
