Endure the Storm for the Sake of Those on the Other Side | August 21st, 2026
Reading:
2 Corinthians 1:3-4
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
Devotional:
God comforts us in our afflictions so that we can comfort others with the same comfort we have received. Your suffering is not only about you. There is someone on the other side of your storm who needs what God is producing in you right now. The disciples needed to cross through that storm because a broken man on the other side needed Jesus.
Your endurance through hardship gives you a language that no classroom can teach. It opens doors that comfort and ease never could. Do not give up halfway across the lake. There is someone waiting on the other side who needs you to make it through.
Reflection: Who in your life might be waiting on the other side of the storm you are currently enduring? How might your testimony of faithfulness through suffering be the very thing God uses to reach them?
