Comfort in Trials

This semester has been a long walk with Jesus. I don't feel at home there so I turn to Him. The trials with professors and differing views of my classmates made me search for what I truly believe.

Trials often seem to be the best way to grow close to Him. And that is what this week is really about- joining Him in His trial, comforting Him with our love and devotion during the darkest moments of His life for He exists outside of time. The sacrifices and prayers we make today comforted Him on that agonizing night in the garden, as He stood before Pilate, when the soldiers were mocking Him.



This is such a powerful idea to me, that we can be of comfort to our God who made us. Why should our words and actions mean anything to Him? But they do and we can. So won't you this week?
