Or who shut in the sea with doors when it burst out from the womb.—Job 38:8 (ESV)
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.—2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (NIV)

Dear Lord, guide me to see the good in my situation. Help me to heal so that I may help another in need.
Or who shut in the sea with doors when it burst out from the womb.—Job 38:8 (ESV)
