Comfort

This book is not in your hands so that we can simply commiserate with each other’s difficulties. It is meant to pierce your sin-darkened night with the light of God’s Word.

God is not a preoccupied parent, he’s an invested and interested tender loving Father. He values what perplexes us.

The sword of the spirit in Holy Scripture does indeed show us our sin, but thanks be to God, it also shows us our Savior.

Our hope is God's mercy. It's like a well that never dries up. His mercies were there before he created us. They are present for us today.

The imprecatory psalms are like release valves for hurting souls. Their stanzas are God-given spaces in which we can bear our soul’s torment.
