Word Theme: Comfort

Most people will give an emotional response to the meaning of comfort.

Comfort for me conjures up the idea of comfort in textile. I'm a very tactile person. I love soft squishy things... Like a soft squishy teddy bear or pillows. Also, thinking back to a cozy warm fire and cozy soft bed coverings.

Comfort in the way my clothes and shoes fit. I deal a lot with sensory perception challenges. Certain things absolutely drive me to distraction... So, everything I do is done for my comfort.

The other thing that comes to mind for me in the realm of comfort is the all treasured: comfort zone. We're told we need to step outside our comfort zone and stop letting things hold us back.

Comfort is something we all like to have. Whether it's an emotional response or a good fit with items.

Life as it is

I find myself overwhelmed daily. God carries me through it. (Isaiah 40:11
He will feed His flock like a shepherd; He will gather the lambs with His arm, And carry them in His bosom, And gently lead those who are with young.) The warmth of His bosom and the feel, sound of His heartbeat are so comforting. He is my comfort and resting place. (Psalm 71:21 You shall increase my greatness, And comfort me on every side. Psalm 94:19 In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul.) My prayer O' Lord: Psalm 119:76 Let, I pray, Your merciful kindness be for my comfort, According to Your word to Your servant.
