The God Of All Comfort

Captain Sensible writes: Something nice and encouraging now! But what's more, something that is actually true! I am increasingly coming to the conclusion that it is worry and anxiety that is at the root of the "pain barrier" that distances us from God. Relax, and allow yourselves to be comforted, all ye who are hurting! (I think I am getting a little too accustomed to the King James Version...)

"Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;
Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God."
(2 Corinthians 1: 3-4 KJV)
