Comfort in Christ’s Cross
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 5 For as we share abundantly in Christ’s sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too. 6 If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer. 7 Our hope for you is unshaken, for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.
2 Co 1:3–7

Comfort in Christ’s Cross
In the struggles of life, we often feel alone. But through Christ’s cross, we are never without hope or comfort. Paul reminds us that God Himself is the source of all true comfort. This comfort isn’t just a brief relief from suffering; it is a deep, abiding presence that flows from Jesus’ sacrifice for us. Christ took on all our sins, weaknesses, and pains, bearing them on the cross so that we would never face suffering alone. As we experience God’s comfort, we also find purpose: to share His comfort with others. In our weakness, we testify to Christ’s strength, offering the hope of His forgiveness and victory. Because Jesus has risen, our suffering is not the end, but a path through which God’s mercy and strength shine.
