Christ- God of all comfort

Today is a hard day for me and many of us at my church, our pastor is leaving, not because of anything bad, the Lord is moving him on to a different place and we know it is of Him, yet we feel the loss.
Times like this we tend to look inward, or at the circumstance. We can be consumed by the pain and loss. But there is One who truely understands us and knows what we are feeling in the most perfect and profound way. One who knows loss, knows pain. We look to Him, cling to Him, fill our minds with His words. He is really all that matters, He is the most important. Even if we lose everything, if we have Him, we have everything.

Hebrews 4:15-16
For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weakness, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Let us draw near to Him, run to Him, cling to Him, but also..

Gal. 6:9
Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
