Seriously, God? How Am I Supposed to Comfort Others? // Mike Novotny // Time of Grace

[@joshgrover2039]

Pastor, this is one of your best sermons I've had the privilege of hearing. All I can say is thank you, and God bless you.

Both me and my wife lost our jobs 4 days ago, and I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE TELL US :"GOD HAS SOMETHNG BETTER FOR YOU" I have so much anger and hurt I cannot deal with it.

Are you giving yourself the freedom to cry and be honest with God about your anger? God is okay if you get mad at Him. He already knows and He knows working through that pain will help clear out the bad stuff so you can start moving forward.ALL YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID!!!

We should always ask people if they want or need a hug. I don't like hugs except from my son and husband and one reason I don't tell people at my church about stuff is because people just have to hug and hug and hug, and that kind of physical contact makes me feel so uncomfortable. It's not comforting at all.

This is offensive and this is why. You don't point people to yourselves, you point them to God. People are being delivered out of church, because you don't love the body of Christ, nor do you love humanity. USA christianity is offensive beyond measure. You cared more about money and yourselves than you did about others. Job said of his friends they were miserable comforters. That is why Lord Jesus Christ gave us the Holy Comforter. He is the only that knows how to comfort each one, and if one gets comforted all get comforted. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. At present you are being rebuked, for your neglect, absence and abandonment. Want to see not only repentance, but amendment also that you amend your ways. Until then you will be continually rebuked, and as you have treated others, and looked the other way to the misery, pain and suffering, now you will go through that including being abandoned, neglected, in misery and pain and suffering and its not going to leave and depart until you repent and make amends. The repentance am looking for is the gut wrenching, heart breaking, remorse and contrition anything less than that is not worthy, of God nor His body, nor Humanity. Lord Jesus Christ looks after the fields, because you don't.
