[Video] Why Christmas is Horrible

 The following is a video from Mark Brown that I watched last night.  Brown states this about the video.

"For some people, Christmas is a time of loneliness, financial hardship and depression. If this is you, watch this video, if it isn't, share this video."

I'll add that everyone should watch this video because you never know when tragedy will strike and it's good to have these promises in mind when it does.

Our Comforter

Psalm 94:18-19  ¹⁸ When I said, "My foot is slipping," your love, O LORD, supported me. ¹⁹ When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul.

The role of God as Comforter is not simply a New Testament concept.

For the majority of Christianity, the concept of God being a comforter is one most often associated with the so called God of the New Testament. This is not without reason, because the Holy Spirit referred to by Jesus as the Comforter. However, passages like this one in Psalms show that the God of the Old Testament is just as comforting as He is in the New Testament.

I find that refreshing to know that God does not change. In today's ever-changing world it is, well, comforting to know that I can find stability with God. Knowing this encourages me to depend on Him even more. Someone once said that past performance is a good indicator of future performance. If that is true, than I have nothing to fear with God because He was the Comforter in Old Testament times, He was the Comforter in New Testament times, and He will continue to be my Comforter in the present time.

Thank you, God for always being there when we need you.
