Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. (2 Corinthians 1:3–4)
By now, you’re probably experiencing at least a taste of the comfort that comes from turning to God instead of worrying. And, while He technically assists us “free of charge”, He does expect something from us – He expects us to comfort others who are struggling.
Here’s what I wrote in Give Up Worry For Good…
There are other people in your life who need to hear about Jesus. If you don’t think you’re qualified to tell them about him, guess again! There are many worriers in the world who would never think to read a book on how the Lord can help them to experience peace. Some of those individuals are living under your roof. You are way ahead of the curve. Share Jesus with them . . . starting with this book!
It can be as simple as offering to pray for someone or sharing a spiritual book with them. It often begins by just letting them know that you’re here if they need anything. If Jesus helped you, don’t keep Him to yourself. As the old saying goes – You may be the only Jesus some people ever see.
Let not your heart be troubled!
