I found this writing from Charles Stanley very relevant to this week’s study on service:
“Another truth Paul learned is that having experienced the Lord’s support in our suffering, we are then able to “comfort those who are in any affliction”. Although He employs various means to deliver encouragement, people are a favorite instrument. After walking through challenges, we are qualified to share God’s love by cheering on the discouraged, lifting up the burdened, and reaching out to the hurting.”
How can we use the challenges we have faced in our life to help cheer on, lift up and reach out to others in need?
