Word-Filled Wednesday: Comfort

First, be sure to enter my giveaway, celebrating my first decade as a child of God! Click on the picture below to go to my testimony and the giveaway. Deadline is Saturday morning!


Welcome to my contribution to Word-Filled Wednesdays, hosted by Amy Deanne at her wonderful blog the 160 acre woods.

I actually found this picture last week for another purpose, but realized just a bit ago that it would be PERFECT for one of my favorite verses of Scripture. I pray that my "scripture" art inspires, and comforts, you! This is definitely an aspect of our Heavenly Father that I am so very thankful for, and have "used" quite a bit.

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort. (2 Corinthians 1:3 NIV)

Be sure to stop by the 160 acre woods for more visual inspiration from scripture.
