Comfort Zone

Through encouragement...

There is so much else going on behind the scenes. It's intensely driven by personalities, by political differences that overlap the formal structures.

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves.

As a mother comforts her child that we may be able to comfort each other in any affliction—to encourage, help and strengthen. Your affliction is my affliction. Just as sufferings flow over into our lives, so does comfort.

Prayers are the answer to the favor of many. We share the same land and we are looking forward to abundant sharing. Through all the smoke and debris, I envision you whole, well and blessed.

Being separated from family and friends can be distressing-especially when they are going through a trying time. Although I cannot be with you, I offer my love and support in thought and prayer. Even though we may be apart, we share a vital heart and spiritual connection. Know I am inspired by wanting the best for you and me.

Sustained by healing thoughts, I am releasing all concern. I pray that your heart is filled with peace; your soul with comfort; and your life, with abundance of every kind. See what this sorrow has produced in us: what earnestness, what eagerness to clear ourselves, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what concern, what readiness to see justice done.

Comfort, encourage, help and strengthen, by all this we are encouraged.
