Day By Day With Billy Graham Isaiah 51:12 CEB 12 I, I am the one who comforts you. Why should you fear humans who will die, mortals who are treated like grass? God Our Comforter There is also comfort in mourning, because in the midst of mourning God gives a song. His presence in our lives changes our mourning into song, and that song is a song of comfort. This kind of comfort is the kind which enabled a devout Englishman to look at a deep dark hole in the ground where his home stood before the bombing and say, I always did want a basement. Now I can jolly well build another house, like I always wanted. This kind of comfort is the kind which enabled a young ministers wife in a church near us to teach her Sunday school class of girls on the very day of her husbands funeral. Her mourning was not the kind which had no hope-it was a mourning of faith in the goodness and wisdom of God; it believed that our heavenly Father makes no mistakes. Daily Prayer Oh heavenly Father, who knows what agony and grief are because of the sacrifice of Your beloved Son, Jesus Christ-I thank You for the comfort which embraces all those who love You.
