Word of Wisdom

8“But if I were you, I would appeal to God;

I would lay my cause before him.

9He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed,

miracles that cannot be counted.

10He provides rain for the earth;

he sends water on the countryside.

11The lowly he sets on high,

and those who mourn are lifted to safety.

12He thwarts the plans of the crafty,

so that their hands achieve no success.

13He catches the wise in their craftiness,

and the schemes of the wily are swept away.

14Darkness comes upon them in the daytime;

at noon they grope as in the night.

15He saves the needy from the sword in their mouth;

he saves them from the clutches of the powerful.

16So the poor have hope,

and injustice shuts its mouth.  (Job 5:8-16 NIV)

Words of Wisdom

Be Comforted and Comfort

But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words. (‭I Thessalonians‬ ‭4‬:‭13-18‬ NKJV)

Be comforted, and be a comforter!
