1 Corinthians 16; 2 Corinthians 1

(July 25, 2015)

                I have seen many miracles in my life, and received so many blessings that I am often amazed by them.  I have often wondered why I was blessed to see what I have seen, to know what I know, and to have experienced what I experienced.

                Paul, here, gives me another understanding of why that is.  The Lord has comforted me through my tribulations so that I could better know how to comfort others.  The Lord has blessed me to see and experience miracles so that I could bless others by sharing the testimony those events brought in me.  The Lord has saved me (when He might otherwise have let me go) so that I could save others who might otherwise be let go.
