One Verse Devotional

Jesus makes it clear: If you want to be first in His Kingdom, put others first and become the servant to all.

We learned from our last One Verse, 2 Corinthians 1:3, that our God is the God of all Comfort and the Father of Compassion. Today, we look at the very next verse that continues this thought. 2 Corinthians 1:4 tells us that God has given us comfort, not just for ourselves, but so that we can pass along that comfort and compassion to others who are hurting.

If you are facing trouble today, turn to God. He is listening.

You are God's work of art, and He has created a purpose and a plan for your life.

Will God give you more than you can handle? Yes. But He will never allow you to be tempted more than you can bear, and there is a BIG difference between the two!
