Comfort
I accept the comfort and strength of God.
A
hug from a friend or a call from a loved one reminds me I am not alone.
Yet God’s comforting, strengthening presence is with me always, even
when friends are not present. Whatever struggle I may be facing, I am
blessed to know that I am never separate from the presence and comfort
of my Creator.
In prayer, I look past any present struggle to the reality of God’s presence. I do not pretend that the unhappy or unwanted condition is not there. Rather, I lift my thoughts above the condition to think only of God. I invite God’s power into my experience.
This prayerful practice places me in full awareness of God’s comforting, strengthening presence. I am strong and capable, for I am filled with God.
