Comfort is Found
by Ministry Support on June 15th, 2026
"He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters." - Psalm 23:2 There is a difference between relief and real rest. Relief is temporary.

"Then Jesus said to his disciples, If anyone wants to follow after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me." - Matthew 16:24 There is something brutal about a cross. It is not made for comfort. The wood is raw, the edges are splintered, and the weight is not just physical but emotional and spiritual too. It is not built for relaxation or ease.
