Comfort in Distress

The Questions That Steady Us — a Scriptural Consideration entry —

The night is swollen with silence. You lie there staring at the ceiling, the sheet cool against your skin. The faint smell of stale coffee lingers from the counter, and the air feels heavy, almost metallic, like hospital antiseptic clinging after bad news. The shadows stretch longer than they should, and even the clock ticks louder than it has any right to. Your chest is tight — not just from worry, but from the sheer weight of being small in a world that will not stop spinning. And in that dark

The Witness in the Storm — a Scriptural Consideration entry —

The roof hums when rain begins. A soft tapping, then a wild drumroll. And inside, your chest hums too — from pressure you can’t shake. Maybe it’s the rent that’s due, the doctor’s voicemail waiting unheard, or the silence of someone who used to call but doesn’t anymore. The storm outside feels almost personal. Too loud. Too close. Too much.   Scientists call rain a puzzle. They map the air, count the droplets, chase the clouds. But after all the charts and equations, they still confess

The Questions That Hold You Up — a Scriptural Consideration entry —

The world tilts under our feet. One day it’s a steady sidewalk, the next it’s a patch of black ice you never saw coming. You grab at air, you land hard, and suddenly all the things you thought were nailed down start sliding. Plans unravel. Friends let you down. The doctor’s tone turns heavy. And lying there, staring at the ceiling at 2 a.m., you whisper, Where is the solid ground?   Jehovah has already laid the ground under you, thicker than bedrock, older than the mountains that scrap

The Yielding God — a Scriptural Consideration entry —

What if the Almighty never bent? What if every word came down like stone, every decree unmovable, every sentence final? Who could stand before him? Who could even speak?   But Abraham did. He stood before Jehovah and whispered the unthinkable: “What if there are 50 righteous in the city?” Then, almost sheepish, he dares again: “What if 40? What if 30? What if 20? What if 10?” (Genesis 18:28-32, NWT). Each question hangs in the air like a child tugging at his father’s sleeve. And the Ma

When the Father Runs — a Scriptural Consideration entry —

Some people puff themselves up so tall you can’t get near them. Ever try talking to someone who’s all ego? You feel small. You hesitate. You walk away. But what if the Almighty were like that? What if the Creator held you at arm’s length?   He doesn’t. He leans down. He says: “Pour out your hearts before him. God is a refuge for us” (Psalm 62:8, NWT). So why do we still sometimes freeze up, feeling too unworthy to speak?   Picture this: a little girl comes flying around the c
