What an encouragement to all of us who are being afflicted by circumstances we are in. The message here is that God will comfort us even at our most down-trodden times. Later in this chapter Paul was talking about being tormented to the point of wishing for death (vs 8). This is as low as you can get, but he reminds us that God will not leave you out to dry, but will comfort us to the point that we can even encourage others!
Thank You Lord for continually reminding me to have an out word focus and to serve others!
