π Itβs time for our 11th book together – 2 Corinthians π
2 Corinthians 1:1-11
{Keep in mind – just like 1 Corinthians – this is a letter from Paul to a specific church body in Corinth. He is writing to fellow believers.}
I loved this little passage about affliction and comfort. β₯οΈ
π NINE THINGS TO DO IN THE MIDST OF AFFLICTION
- We look to God for comfort (v 3).
- We learn to comfort others (v 4).
- We trust that there is comfort equal to the suffering (v 5).
- We patiently endure (v 6).
- We maintain unshakable hope (v 7).
- We do not hide our afflictions from fellow believers (v 8 ).
- When our affliction feels like death – we rely on the One who raises the dead (v 9).
- We set our hope on the faithfulness of God (v 10).
- We believe in the power of prayer (v 11).
