The Most Soothing Word in the World

When we go through difficulties or disappointments, our souls long to be soothed. But we can’t expect to be fully comforted, calmed, cheered, strengthened, satisfied, or healed when we only receive a tiny slice of what God offers. In every frustration, every need, every decision, the Word beckons us, saying to us over and over, “If you only knew the gift God has for you.” Like an antibiotic salve, the Word treats the most infectious spiritual bacteria running rampant in our lives and soothes our souls.
