Our trials enable us to experience God’s comfort and compassion.  It enables us to comfort with that same comfort the people God puts in our way who go through any trials.  Lord, thank You for Your comfort and mercies. You are the God of All Comfort. You are the One comforting others through us. Thank You for the trial You entrusted us with that strengthened us and allowed us to know You.  Thank You for using our trials to make us instruments of Your comfort.
