“8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works so that no one can boast.”Ephesians 2:8-9

Have you ever prayed, “God, I need you to make me feel better, give me peace and comfort? Please stop this pain?” People might often tell you that you have seen more than your fair share of deaths, disasters, and strange things happen in your life. Despite the pain, you’ve started to find comfort in God.

How do you react when you’re in a lot of pain, facing failure, or struggling with a hard time? If you’re feeling all of this all at once, you pray to God for comfort and His supernatural relief from pain in the future – “God, can You make this better?” “God, will you keep us safe on the road?”

“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.” – Isaiah 54-17

In this mode of thinking, God’s comfort stands between us and our pain; his comfort represents a barrier. It’s just as comfortable to sleep on a feather bed as discomfort is to sleep on the ground. But should we strive to live in comfort when Jesus had nowhere to lay His head? But wait, shouldn’t a good God desire His creatures? All good questions.

How to Find Comfort in God?

With this new (old) concept of comfort as “strength together,” think about how God has brought comfort to the world. God says who would enter our world to be wounded for our transgressions and stripped for our healing. If our faith is all about following Jesus and getting other people to do the same, then let’s look at how His response to pain.

Here are four ways that God can bring you comfort:

  1. Realize God never said He would protect you from pain, but He did say He would go through it with you. He is your strength as a group and your constant comfort.
  2. Follow Jesus’ example. Don’t feel bad about your pain. He didn’t do anything to deserve the pain He felt, but He didn’t feel the need to blame or hurt someone else. He took our pain on himself because He loves us.
  3. Ask God what you need to know. Jesus knew that He would have to go through pain to set us free. So, it’s okay to ask God, “Is there anything I can learn or do because of this pain?” when you’re in pain.
  4. Start the Finding Comfort in Pain Bible Plan if you still don’t understand how a good God could allow pain to exist.

So, when you are in pain, should you pray for a way out or look for Jesus’ way, which is sometimes painful but always wins? Try to follow Jesus more, and it seems to be working.
