Take Comfort

When the gusting winds of adversity begin to howl, and the merciless rain and hail of distress keep pounding, God is ready to provide consoling protection. This is how one of the psalms describes him as providing comforting shelter:  "With his pinions he will block approach to you, and under his wings you will take refuge." (Psalm 91:4)  The image here may be that of an eagle. It is a picture of a bird that senses danger and then protectively spreads its wings over its young. In an even greater sense, Jehovah become a true Protector fora ll who find refuge in him.-Psalm 7:1. 

If you wish to learn more about God, his personality, his purposes, and his ability to provide comfort, you are invited to study his Word. Jehovah's Witnesses will be happy to help you in that endeavor. Yes, you too can take comfort in Jehovah's strength!
