Comfort Them

Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
  -- Matthew 5:4

Before yesterday I was not familiar with Charlie Kirk and his work. Before yesterday I might have hoped for a time to mourn for those closest to the man after his death. Social media put my naivety to rest rather quickly on that! What do I learn from this? That Jesus gave to us a potential response to the bereaved in His great sermon, those mourning shall be comforted and we have a great opportunity to be among the comforters. Some will choose something else, especially on social media, but we are only responsible to the Lord Jesus for our response. And that is to love and comfort those hurt by the actions of evil in this world. 

May the Lord Jesus Christ comfort us all,
